Transferring apparatus by which workpieces are transferred from a first location to a second location while simultaneously changing the orientation of the workpieces, for example, from an upright position to a horizontal position or vice versa. The apparatus employs at least one and preferably two conjugate pairs of workpiece carriers, each conjugate pair being rotatably connected to a driven shaft. The workpiece carriers of the conjugate pairs are alternately presented at the first location and then at the second location to affect transfer and reorientation of the workpieces. Although not limited thereto, the present transferring apparatus is especially suited for use at the loading end and/or the discharge end of decorating machines of the intermittent motion type.
