Abstract

See full text

A main conveyor for conveying a succession of orders in a main direction past a transfer location is associated with an upwardly open holder pocket at the transfer location defining a vertical transfer plane. A plurality of openable transfer clips on an endless conveyor element are displaceable past the pocket with the clips moving vertically upward in the transfer plane as they pass the pocket. A pair of belts having juxtaposed stretches and spanned over a pair of downstream rollers spaced to one side of the transfer plane immediately above the pocket drop literature packs one after the other from between the rollers and belts into the pocket. A cam arrangement opens the clips as they approach the pocket and closes them generally when they reach the pocket for gripping the packs and lifting them out of the pocket.
