ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An apparatus that serves to collect and account for empty beverage bottles in beverage stores. A carriage is provided as the receptacle, the bottom of which is automatically displaceable in height by means of a chain drive, operated via light beam emitters and tripping vanes, in accordance with the bottles contin- ually introduced into the receptacle. The bottles, on being introduced, enter an intake rotor having sectors. This rotor alternately changes its direction of rotation after each bottle is introduced, so that the bottles pass into the receptacle in two different directions in alternation via guide chutes. Pyramids of bottles are thereby prevented from forming on one side only. There- fore bottle breakage is avoided as a result of the adaptation of the height of the bottom, and that replac- ing a full container with an empty one can be accom- plished without difficulty. When used with a bottle recognition and evaluation unit, the apparatus can accept bottles and calculate the amount of deposit due.
