Abstract
A double-cartridge feeder has left and right sprocket wheel transport shafts. Each transport shaft is provided with a star wheel coaxially mounted thereon. A reciprocally movable switching fork is arranged on a first alternate drive. A second alternate drive serves for swinging of an inserter into an operative position in dependence with the sprocket wheel transport shaft which has been selectively driven via the first alternate drive. By means of a globoidal drive a uniform movement of an external drive is converted into a step-wise movement of the feeder.
