<p>PURPOSE:To enable rectangular containers to be quickly and automatically aligned into a matrix shape without being turned over. CONSTITUTION:Cans 10 irregularly arranged on a conveyor 13c are corrected by being brought in contact with a driving rope 14, so that the longitudinal direction may be taken as a feeding direction, and the cans 10 are guided between guide means 24 in the longitudinally aligned state, and the specific number of cans 10 fed out from the guide means 24 are brought in contact with a stopper 31 on a conveyor 26, so as to be longitudinally aligned on standby. These cans 10 are moved in the width direction by a pushing-in device 32 and transferred on a loader conveyor 34, and this operation is repeated to a plurality of lines, thereby the cans 10 are aligned into a matrix shape. And, a sweep holder is fitted to a group of cans 10, so as to be conveyed while maintaining the aligned state.</p> |
