ABSTRACT:
The disclosure describes a device for transferring a ball, skein or package from a winding mandrel to a freely projecting carrier arm mounted on a conveyor belt. This purpose is served by a wedge member, onto which the wound ball is moved by a gripping device and which subsequently moves with the ball towards the carrier arm. The wedge member and carrier arm both have a cross sectional profile which enables the wedge member to be displaced lengthwise of the carrier arm so as to pass over and beyond it and so the ball is pushed onto and remains on the carrier arm. In this way, the ball is exactly positioned and an arrow label may be inserted into the center hole of the ball with the aid of the carrier arm. Once the label has been inserted the labelled ball is withdrawn from the carrier arm.
