A second swiveling device is provided for swiveling a tea bag, contained in the receptacle in the second end position, into a horizontal position. A first tea bag pusher for moving the tea bag from the first swiveling device onto a first track of a two-track transport device for transporting the tea bag to a processing machine is provided. A second tea bag pusher is provided for moving the tea bag from the second swiveling device onto a second track of the two-track transporting device for transporting the tea bag to a processing machine.
