The invention relates to a conveyor device for transferring thermoplastic hollow articles, while still hot, from a flash-removal station into a cooling station. For this purpose, a finger gripper is provided. The finger gripper has assigned to it a blowing mandrel. The blowing mandrel moves into the filling opening of the hollow article to be transferred and admits cooling air into the hollow article, so that, on the way from the flash-removal station into the cooling station, virtually no heat passes from the inside outwards and consequently no deformations of the hollow article walls need be feared. In the cooling station, a satisfactorily calibrated and dimensionally-accurate solidification of the hollow articles finally takes place. <IMAGE>
