ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for transferring bar shaped articles from one conveyor to another wherein the two conveyors are each provided with equally spaced suction housings for holding the articles with the spacing in one conveyor being different from the other. The apparatus comprises a link-up conveyor which includes a first and a second rotating element that revolve in the same direction at identical angular velocity, around separate parallel axes. To the perimeter of the first rotating element are pivoted equally spaced cranks, each provided with a suction housing for holding and releasing an article. Each crank is connected to the second element by a link which, as the link-up conveyor rotates, causes it to oscillate at such a rate as to match the velocity of the crank suction housing to that of the suction housings of the two conveyors in the positions in which the articles are transferred thereto or therefrom by the link-up conveyor.
