ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a method of moving a plurality of two-piece canning jar-type lids in series to a feed mechanism which will single-line the caps and maintain them in assembled position. The single-lining is arranged to approach the path of movement of a plurality of containers also moving in series on their side with their axes horizontal. The caps are brought, under gravity and at an angle, to the path of movement of the finish or neck of the jars such that the finish of the jars or containers individually engage and move the caps from the supply of caps. The caps are then retained on the finish of the jar and by reason of the movement with the jar, in a linear path, the caps are rotated and thereby threaded onto the finish of the containers.
