ABSTRACT:
A station for distributing products to a line for supplying packaging machines or for storage, if necessary, comprises a first conveyor having an end which is driven so as to oscillate between a raised configuration and a lowered, receiving configuration in which it is aligned with the output of a product-conveyor line and is disposed above the center-line of a line perpendicular thereto for supplying a packaging machine, and a first product-transfer unit which is aligned with and below the first conveyor and is driven in an oscillatory manner in order to move its input from a collecting position in which it is aligned with the product-conveyor line while the first conveyor is in the raised configuration, to a discharge position in which it is coplanar with the supply line. A second conveyor and a second transfer unit for any storage that may be necessary are disposed specularly on the opposite side of the supply line to act, respectively, as a conveyor line for the first conveyor and as a unit for transferring to the supply line the products previously accumulated on the first conveyor which is simultaneously driven in the opposite direction.
