The device for individually transferring flat objects from an entry conveyor ( ) on which the objects travel in series edge-on in a first direction (A), into buckets ( ) of an exit conveyor ( ), comprises an intermediate conveyor ( ) arranged in the continuation of the entry conveyor above the exit conveyor and equipped with receptacles ( ) which, over at least part of their path, can move in a second direction (B) perpendicular to said first direction, each flat object leaving the entry conveyor being injected edge-on into a receptacle of the intermediate conveyor which comes up to face the exit of the entry conveyor so as to be transferred edge-on into a bucket of the exit conveyor. It further comprises an injection system ( ) comprising elastically deformable wheels ( ) at the exit end of the entry conveyor and designed to accelerate and then retard the movement of each flat object in said first direction before injecting it into a receptacle of the intermediate conveyor.
