ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for batchwise transfer of articles to a receptacle comprises an elongate, upwardly open tray which is longitudinally reciprocable between a loading position and an unloading position. An article receiving compartment within the tray is defined rearwardly by a pusher and forwardly by a hinged flap. When a portion of articles has been loaded into the compartment, the tray is subjected to a longitudinal shaking action. The tray is then moved to its unloading position wherein the compartment therein is located within a receptacle. During this movement the flap hits against a stationary abutment whereby it is pivoted clear of the front end of the compartment. Subsequently, the tray is withdrawn to its loading position and simultaneously the pusher is moved forward relative to the tray whereby the articles are transferred gently from the compartment to the receptacle. During the backward movement of the tray the flap pivots back to its closing position and when the tray has been retracted the pusher is retracted to its initial position.
