The machine includes also a device (30) for forming regular groups (110) of articles (11), that is equipped with pick up means (34) movable on a vertical plane transversal to the conveying line (8) for transferring rows of articles (11) from a feeding line (10) to a station (12), where a regular group (110) of articles (11) is built up. In the region of the grouping station (12), pusher means (48) act to introduce the group (110) into a container (20). There is also provided a device (55) for closing the container (20), situated downstream of the set up station (9) and along the conveying line (8). <IMAGE></p> |
