ABSTRACT:
Capsule orienting apparatus in which misoriented asymmetric capsules inadvertently passed by a rectifying unit are segregated from properly oriented capsules. Capsules (12) are delivered by a rectifying drum (14) to capsule carrying pockets (38) in a segregating drum (36) which have recessed portions (38a) sized to loosely receive properly oriented capsules and tightly receive misoriented capsules. As the loosely held, properly oriented capsules pass a discharge point, they are released. The tightly held, misoriented capsules remain in the segregating drum (36) past the discharge point and are ejected from the segregating drum downstream from the discharge point.
