The device is provided with a turning drum (20, 22) having a truncated cone and a truncated cone shell, wherein the turning drum (20, 22) is rotatable around an axis of rotation (38, 48) or driven in rotation, wherein the truncated cone shell ofthe turning drum (20, 22) receiving troughs for the rod-shaped article (102) in the circumferential direction of the truncated cone shell. The device is characterized in that the receiving troughs are formed and arranged on the truncated cone shell such that the trough center longitudinal axes of the receiving troughs of the turning drum (20, 22) and the axis of rotation (38, 48) of the turning drum (20, 22) do not intersect and or in the arrangement of rod-shaped articles (101, 102) in the receiving troughs of the turning drum (20, 22), the central longitudinal axes of the rod-shaped articles (101, 102) and the rotation axis (38, 48) of the turning drum (20, 22) do not intersect.
