Abstract (en)

[origin: US2003160378A1] Coupons are fed from a supply station to an assembly station forming part of a wrapping line, where they are associated each with a relative product. The coupons are engaged along one vertical edge by the lugs of a looped conveyor belt, pushed a set distance along a transfer line sliding internally of a guide channel, and released by the belt only after entering the assembly station, where the single coupon comes to rest interposed between a product and a relative wrapper blank.
