Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0608161A1] This device is intended to receive one-by-one from an input conveyor (2), flat objects filing past in the same plane in a first direction and to move them one-by-one to an output conveyor (5). It comprises a receiving conveyor (11) including a plurality of receptacles (12) which are mobile over at least part of their path along a second direction (F1) substantially orthogonal to the said first direction (F2), each receptacle being able to receive a flat object supported in a position slightly inclined towards the vertical, and a fixed post (7) for receiving and stopping in a position slightly inclined to the vertical, flat objects from the input conveyor. The fixed receiving post (7) is interposed in the said part of the path and has a shape conjugate to that of the receptacles (12) so that an object supported on the receiving post is transferred along the second direction (F1) supported in a receptacle (12) when the latter passes into the plane of the receiving post (7). <IMAGE>
