PCT No. PCT/DK95/00038 Sec. 371 Date Jul. 24, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Jul. 24, 1997 PCT Filed Jan. 26, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96/22697 PCT Pub. Date Aug. 1, 1996In a device for destacking and conveying sticks to be inserted into ice-cream bodies in an apparatus of the kind, in which the sticks are supplied in the form of an elongate stack of sticks in guide means (5, 6, P), from which the sticks are destacked singly adjacent to a carrier (7, 8) moving past the exit aperture (12) of the guide means (6, P), the destacking means is in the form of a rotor (7) with teeth resembling those of a ratchet wheel. With this arrangement, the sticks are destacked quickly and reliably, making it possible to achieve high operating rates, either when the sticks are placed directly in front of an ice-cream body, or when the sticks are inserted in pockets on a carrier belt (8). In the latter case, said belt (8) may have pockets or fingers with a substantially greater depth or height, respectively, than the thickness of an ice-lolly stick, so that the stick is held more securely during the further conveying. |
