Abstract
A takeoff-delivery mechanism for cup-like containers is provided with a pusher device that is operated repeatedly to remove stacks containing a predetermined number of containers from the front of a horizontal supply stack while containers are being fed to the rear thereof. Initially, each removed stack is fed to a horizontal delivery device which is then pivoted by moving its front end upward until the delivery device is generally vertical. The removed stack is discharged from the delivery device through the now downwardly facing rear thereof into a receiving device where the removed stack remains generally vertical.
