ABSTRACT:
A rotary take-off system comprising an apparatus for removing manufactured objects such as cast metal anodes from a first work station and transporting these objects to a second work station. The first station, at which the object is manufactured, may preferably be a mold located upon a rotatable casting wheel, while the second work station is preferably a quenching medium for cooling and temporarily holding the manufactured object. After the object is manufactured at the first work station it is then transported through an arc of approximately 180.degree. by a pair of rotatable arms to the second work station for further processing. The arms are coupled to a motor which is operated in order to cause the rotation thereof. Within the quenching medium, a pair of pivotably connected hydraulic push arms is positioned, which accept the anode as it drops from the rotatable arms and which thereafter facilitate the sliding and stacking of the completed anodes to a rear portion of the quenching medium.
