PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To load a large number of inner covers in a short time using a simple construction by providing in a rotary body a protruding member, which enters a recess of a cap which is stopped by a stopping means disposed midway in a transfer line, and an urging means for elastically urging the protruding member in the protruding direction of the protruding member. SOLUTION: Caps 2, into each of which an inner cover 3 is temporarily put, are successively carried onto an inclined line 5, passing a terminal end of a conveyor, and fall down to the side of a rotary body 7 and are caught and stopped by a stopper 6 on a floor surface 51b. A protruding member 72 is brought, from above, into engagement with the stopped cap 2 by the rotation of the body 7 so that the cap 2 is released from the stopper 6 and transferred over a floor surface 51c as the member 72 moves. At that moment, since the interval between the peripheral surface of the body 7 and the surface 51c gradually reduces, as the cap is transferred on the surface 51c, the forward end of the member 12 gets into the recess 21 of the cap 2. Hence, the cover 3 in the recess 21 is pushed into the interior of the recess by the forward end of the member 72. |
