ABSTRACT The specification describes an apparatus for loading a stillage with elongate articles such as extrusions fed lengthwise of themselves along a conveyor. The apparatus comprises a horizontal series of spaced forwardly projecting sub-frames each carrying one or more rollers rotatable about a horizontal forwardly extending axis on to which rollers the extrusions can be fed, from the conveyor, the rollers forming effectively an extension of the conveyor. The sub- frames can be moved forward and rearward relative to the frame of the apparatus, i.e. laterally with respect to the line of movement along the conveyor. Between adjacent sub-frames are tines which can be raised to lift the extrusions off the rollers and, after the sub-frames and rollers have been moved rearwardly, can be lowered to lower the extrusions on to the stillage. The tines can then be moved rearward to disengage them from the extrusions on the stillage, either by movement of the tines relative to the main frame or by moving the main frame itself. Means is provided for depositing spacers on the extrusions whilst they are in their raised position after having been lifted from the rollers by the tines so as to separate those extrusions from the next extrusions to be placed on the stillage.
