ABSTRACT:
Cleaned bottles, as from a bottle washing machine, travel along a path carried by conveyor in a predetermined orientation evenly spaced, one bottle from another. The carrier moves the bottles from a generally horizontal position to a position approaching the vertical at which time the bottle will slide out of its usual receptacle. At the bottle discharge point, a rotatable generally helical structure is provided made of spaced rods and this device carries one or more shoes, each shoe arriving at the specified point in time with the discharge of a given bottle from the arrangement of bottles in the bottle carrier. Guided by the shoe, the bottle then is lowered by the helical structure to land in an upright position on a receiving platform. The generally helical structure is so arranged that after a bottle is deposited on its platform, the rod structure, or similar structure pushes the bottle outwardly away from the machine onto its receiving conveyor.
