摘要

A device for transferring, by means of a conveyor system, cigars or mallets from a machine that manufactures them to a container in which the cigars or bundles have to be stacked in layers, said conveyor system including a carrier surface provided with distributed grooves uniformly or similar, extending transversely to the direction in which articles are being transported whose grooves are intended to fit, in succession, a cigar or mallet taken from a feeding station, in addition there is disposed a transfer member to be moved through the carrier surface with defined time intervals, said carrier surface then remaining stationary in front of the container to be filled, and when said transfer member moves through the carrier surface a series of cigars or mallets are moved. , corresponding to a layer, from said surface to the an electrode, characterized in that a sensing device is arranged to scan the groove on the carrier surface within which a cigar or mallet is fed and to cause that when a cigar or mallet is engaged by said groove, the carrier is driven to a position in which a subsequent groove can fit a cigar or mallet, and to prevent, in the absence of a cigar or mallet, further movement of the carrier surface until a cigar or mallet has been disposed in said first groove.
