Abstract
Crown corks are conveyed from a supply source along an aligning track to a helically shaped guide track and then on to a capping device. A conveying disc rotates about a central axis and has a planar surface extending transversely of the central axis adjacent to the guide track. The conveying disc moves individual crown corks from the aligning track through the guide track to receiving pockets in the capping device. The receiving pockets travel along a circular path which has a transfer point disposed tangentially to the circumferential edge of the planar surface of the conveying disc.
