<p>The movement of the article feeding means (1) and the intake branch (4) of the device (6) for transferring and accumulating these articles are controlled in synchrony with each other, causing - whenever there is detected a discontinuity due to the lack of an article (A) in the said substantially continuous flow - the speed of the said supply means (1) and, consequently, also of the said intake branch to become reduced. Upon the establishment of a minimum speed attained when the said discontinuity reaches the said intake branch (4), the said intake branch (4) is brought into a condition of substantial standstill that is maintained until the first article after the detected discontinuity reaches the said intake branch. The said intake branch (4) is then reactivated so as to bring both the feeding means (1) and the said intake branch (4) back into their normal operating conditions. <IMAGE></p> |
