The invention relates to a device for receiving and transporting objects, the device having at least one pair of parallel chains or belts situated opposite each other and driven in synchrony, which define a space between each other for transporting the objects therethrough. Each chain (2) has at least one gripper (10) which is mounted so as to be pivotable thereon and faces one of respective grippers on the other chain. Furthermore each gripper has an extension (13) which is moveable along a guiding path (61, 62, 63, 64), the respective guiding path having a path section (62) sloped with respect to the direction of transport of the objects (7) at the point of receipt of the objects, so that, when the chain is moving, the extension (13) of the gripper (10) is deflected along the sloped path section (62) and thus a rotational movement countering the translation movement (arrow A) caused by the chain is imparted to the gripper. Thus no rotational movement occurs at the moment of contact between the gripper and the object.

L'invention concerne un dispositif permettant de recevoir et de transporter des objets, qui comprend au moins une paire de chaînes ou de courroies parallèles superposées, entraînées de manière synchrone, définissant entre elles un espace à l'intérieur duquel les objets sont transportés. Chaque chaîne (2) porte au moins un organe de préhension (10) monté pivotant et opposé à l'organe correspondant de l'autre chaîne. Chaque organe de préhension comporte une extension (13) pouvant se déplacer le long d'une glissière de guidage (61, 62, 63, 64). Chaque glissière comporte, à l'emplacement de réception des objets, une partie (62) inclinée vers la direction de déplacement des objets (7) de façon que, lorsque la chaîne se déplace, l'extension (13) de l'organe de préhension (10) bascule le long de ladite partie (62) et que ledit organe de préhension effectue un mouvement de rotation opposé au mouvement de translation (flèche A) provoqué par la chaîne. De cette manière, il ne se produit pas de déplacement relatif entre l'organe de préhension et l'objet au moment où ils entrent en contact.
