Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2004078623A1] In a device for taking articles from a magazine and transferring them to a conveying line, a rotating drum (10), rotating on an axis (11) crosswise to the conveying line (4), in a direction (B) concordant with the direction (A) of the conveying line (4) forward movement, has a series of rotating gripping groups (12), regularly spaced apart at the edge of the rotating drum and driven to rotate in an opposite direction and in a suitable step relation with respect to the rotation direction (B) of the rotating drum (10), so as to perform a complete turn between a position, in which a single article (2) is taken from a magazine and a position, in which the article (2) is transferred to the conveying line (4). Suction cups (24) are carried oscillating by the gripping groups (12) for gripping the articles (2), while a stem (21) maintains the suction cups (24) in a configuration substantially radial with respect to the rotating drum (10).
