A small, structurally simple and operationally reliable apparatus for conveying a plurality of juxtaposed elongated objects transversely to a prescribed position, and moving them longitudinally one by one includes at least two pairs of vertically disposed plate members, those pairs being so spaced apart from each other as to support both ends of the objects thereon. The plate members in each of those pairs being placed one upon the other, and alternately vertically movable for conveying the objects transversely. Each of the plate members has a corrugated upper edge defined by a plurality of alternately occurring crests and roots. The crests on the upper edge of one of the plate members in each pair are in staggered relation to those on the other plate member by a distance which is equal to a half of the pitch between the crests. The apparatus further includes a member provided between those pairs of plate members for receiving each of the elongated objects and moving it longitudinally. The receiving member is situated above the upper edges of the plate members in their lowered position, and at a level of height which is equal to the level of the roots of any of the plate members in its raised position. The apparatus is, for example, suitable for use in combination with caulking devices for brake hoses.
