Device for transferring (1) plastic bottles (2) comprising a first wheel (7) for unloading the bottles from a first conveyor chain (3) at a first station. The transferring device is equipped with holders and a cam-type device for detaching the bottles from the first chain, removing them from the holding elements, (4) and lowering them to the level of a second transfer wheel (16). This wheel is equipped with holders (2) that seize the bottles from the first wheel (7), and transfer them to a second wheel (22) where they are held by means of holders (23) and placed at the level of the second conveyor chain (25). Here, the bottles are inserted in other holding elements (24) and transported to the next station.
