Abstract
A process and device for the handling of objects, such as containers, particularly bottles, is described, in which an extension of the transport path is possible in a constructionally simple manner and with a compact design. For this purpose, the containers are moved on a rotating conveyor to an intake station, which rotating conveyor first moves them past a discharge station and again to the intake station, and then past an intake station and again to the discharge station, whereby the containers are removed from the rotating conveyor no sooner than upon their second arrival at the discharge station, whereby a multiple through-passage section is formed in the direction of transport between the intake station and the discharge station.
