ABSTRACT:
An article transfer mechanism is disclosed comprising a pair of longitudinally and laterally reciprocable feed bars having opposed cooperable article engaging feed fingers therebetween. The feed bars are supported at opposite ends for longitudinal sliding movement relative to feed bar support members which in turn are supported for linear lateral movement toward and away from one another. An oscillatory drive arrangement is provided at one end of the feed bars for reciprocating the bars longitudinally, and a rotatable cam and follower lever arrangement is provided at each end of the feed bars for reciprocating the support members and thus the feed bars laterally toward and away from one another.
