摘要

The specification discloses a mechanism for transferring articles from one conveyor to another at a point where the two conveyors are moving along non-parallel paths. Studs on each conveyor engage in respective apertures in the article to support and locate the article. Preferably the conveyors are arranged to carry container closures through a closure moulding device which may also include a combined tool for severing a pellet from a rod of thermoplastic material and placing the pellet in a closure ready for cold moulding.
