ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for handling bottles, especially for handling bottles which are discharged from a treatment machine in which the bottles are discharged in groups from the treatment machine, each group consisting of a row of adjacent bottles discharged from the machine in a direction perpendicular to the length of the row. A conveyor extending at an angle of about 95 degrees to the direction of movement of each row is disclosed adjacent the treatment machine. The rows of bottles are successively discharged from the treatment machine to the conveyor and are deposited on the conveyor in rows which are parallel and spaced and which extend from side to side of the conveyor at an acute angle to the direction of movement of the conveyor. The conveyor is advantageously formed of a plurality of parallel belts having a common drive.
