ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for the transport of spheroidal objects, for example golf balls, with the aid of an air current generated in a conduit system by a fan unit, from an infeed point (13) to a number of stations in the form of sites of use (teeing-off sites), storage points (magazines, automatic dispensers), and so on. An infeed tube (14) is provided for infeed of the spheroidal objects into the conduit system and discharges the objects at a shunting device (16) which engages the objects in sequence one after another and moves the objects along the infeed tube (14) in a direction towards a conduit in the conduit system from a receptacle point (13). A second shunting device (18) is provided between the receptacle point (13) and the shunting device (16) for urging the spheroidal objects in the opposite direction from the infeed tube (14) towards the receptacle point (13) in the event that the objects are disposed on one another.
