Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9602448A1] The proposed device comprises: a magazine (M) which receives the stacked articles and arranges an article in an upper position (A) in the stack ready for removal; a guide unit (FP) of the magazine, said guide unit being at least approximately L-shaped in cross-section and inclined in such a way that the articles are supported by both sides of the guide unit (FP); a rotor (R) provided with at least one suction grip unit (SG) which can be displaced radially and is mounted so as to pivot; and a conveyor (F) which receives and transports the separated articles. The magazine (M), rotor (R) and conveyor (F) are mutually aligned to allow the suction grip unit (SG) to pick up the article awaiting removal in position (A) and transfer it to the conveyor (F) after one rotation of the rotor (R).
