ABSTRACT:
A linearly disposed method and apparatus for orienting articles such as bottles or the like in a pre-selected position, wherein bottles are fed onto a primary conveyor where a photoelectric cell-light source combination senses their orientation and, if needed, reorients the articles, preferably by an air blast which urges a part of it into contact with a secondary conveyor which is at a different relative speed from that of the primary conveyor, such speed differential serving to turn the improperly oriented bottle so as to bring it into the pre-selected position.
