ABSTRACT:
A rotary conveying apparatus comprising a plurality of rails for supporting and conveying cup-shaped cylindrical articles on a cushion of fluid during their translatory movement from the inlet ends to the outlet ends of the rails. The apparatus incorporates a framework on which a plurality of the rails are mounted in longitudinally extending spaced substantially parallel relationship, with the inlet and outlet ends thereof arranged in a circular pattern at equal circumferentially spaced increments therearound. Each of the rails is formed with a plurality of cavities or ports in a supporting surface thereof, through which a fluid such as air is discharged against the surface of an article in a manner to support the article on a cushion of fluid in spaced relationship from the supporting surface. The rotary conveying device is continuously or intermittently rotated and transfer means are provided for transferring articles into the inlet ends of the rails in a sequential ordered sequence and receiving means are provided for receiving articles discharged from the outlet ends of the rails in a sequential ordered sequence. The articles, during conveyance along the rails between the inlet and outlet ends, can be subjected to one or a plurality of treatments such as, for example, a drying or curing of decorative coatings on the surfaces of the articles.
