ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for transferring tubes such as metallic tooth paste tubes from a tube filler to product buckets of a cartoner. Tubes are delivered by a conveyor to a tube filler onto the circumferential surface of a rotary drum which has at least one pocket in its surface. The pocket picks up the tube deposited on the surface of the drum and drops the tube into continuously-moving product buckets below the drum. Three gates are spaced along the conveyor to maintain a proper spacing of the tubes so that the tubes do not bang into one another and so that only one at a time is deposited onto the circumferential surface of the drum.
