The device comprises a line of adjustable forks (13) hinged in a vertical direction on an infeed line (14) located above the product infeed line (15); this the product infeed line (15) presents at least one curved central sector forming a route that slopes slightly upwards and then downwards, in such a way that at the top of the curve each package can be successively gripped by the respective fork (13), rotated by 90 degrees and then released for transfer to the conveying machine (12) and then the boxing station.
