Process and apparatus for transferring articles fed on a single track onto several discharge tracks. Where packaging machines are concerned, there is often the need for articles, especially (small) packs (10), preferably conveyed in close succession on a feed track (11), to be distributed to several, especially two tracks leading further (discharge tracks 12, 13). For the efficient continuous allocation of the packs (10) to two discharge tracks (12, 13), there is a distributor drum (15), on the circumference of which the continuously conveyed packs (10) are shifted sideways during conveyance and at the same time are aligned with the parallel discharge tracks (12, 13) arranged at a distance from one another. The continuously rotating distributor drum makes it possible to allocate the packs to several discharge tracks without interrupting the feed flow.
