ABSTRACT:
A feeding mechanism is for feeding cylindrical containers having a diameter and a major length dimension to a cutting machine and includes a pair of parallel feed shafts centrally disposed above the cutting machine. The feed shafts have parallel axes of rotation for rotation in opposite directions. The feed shafts have a predetermined distance therebetween to provide a predetermined gap between the feed shafts which is greater than the diameter of the cylindrical container. Each of the feed shafts includes a pair of feed discs mounted for rotation therewith. The pair of feed discs on each shaft include corresponding curved sectors which cooperate with corresponding curved sectors of the pair of feed discs on the other shaft for gripping the sides of the container therebetween. Rotation of the shafts toward the cutting machine causes the container entrapped by the corresponding curved sectors to be fed in an end first direction toward the cutting machine.
