A device for conveying cup-shaped objects, such as the bodies of two piece cans located between the bed of a mechanical press and a lower die shoe. A plenum is provided with a perforated upper deck surface for directionally expelling air which, together with an exhaust duct located upstream of the perforated upper deck surface, act to move the cup-shaped objects to a down-stream location for further processing.

Cup conveyor

Apparatus for transporting articles, such as cylindrical containers, between differing elevations by initially moving the articles on an upper surface of a first plenum by air pressure. The articles are then transferred to a moving belt supported on an upper surface of a second plenum and held on said belt by vacuum. A transfer means is provided at the overlap of the first and second plenums to enhance the transfer of the articles between plenum sections.
