Abstract
A device for uncoupling and thereafter recoupling both ends of horizontally travelling bars to a conveyor consisting of two parallel chains. Each chain is provided with a great number of supporting means composed of an unmovable first member and a rotatable second member capable of receiving and temporarily retaining an end of a bar and of releasing said end again. The locking and unlocking of the end of the bar is rendered possible by a rotational movement of said second member caused by four stationary abutments along the path of the advancing conveyor chains.
