Products handled by a rotary wrapping machine, typically cakes of soap, are taken up, held and transferred by a device comprising a drum (7) rotatable about a relative axis (X) and equipped with a set of pockets (8) arranged around the axis (X) in such a way that the products (P) are transferable by rotation of the drum (7) from an infeed station (9) to an outfeed station (10). Each pocket (8) of the device is furnished with a relative clamp mechanism (17) capable of movement in relation to the pocket (8) between a spread position, which allows a single product (P) to be introduced at the infeed station (9) and removed at the outfeed station (10), and a contracted position in which the product (P) will remain immobilized in the pocket (8) during the transfer movement. <IMAGE>
