Abstract
A device for transferring items to a transport system or to a storage unit has a feed unit for conveying a plurality of items in at least one feeding line. Further, it has a transfer station for receiving the items from the feed unit and for transferring the items to the transport system or to the storage device. The transfer station includes two temporary storage lines arranged in parallel. The items are provided by the feed unit in a manner that the items in the first temporary storage line are arranged offset from the items in the second temporary storage line. The temporary storage surfaces in the first temporary storage line have at least one flap to be opened. A pusher in the transfer station is adapted to push the items from the second temporary storage line to the first temporary storage line.
