A workpiece transfer for loading and unloading workpieces for a decorating machine includes at least one workpiece gripper for supporting a workpiece during changing of the orientation thereof from a first orientation to a second orientation. The workpiece in the first orientation has a longitudinal central axis oriented in one of a vertical and a horizontal orientation and in the second orientation has the axis in the other of the vertical and horizontal orientations. A drive reciprocates the workpiece gripper and the workpiece gripped thereby generally parallel with a rotational axis while rotating the workpiece gripper and the workpiece gripped thereby about the rotational axis, the rotational axis forming acute angles with the longitudinal central axis of the workpiece in each of the vertical and horizontal orientations.

Un dispositif de transfert de pièce permettant de charger et de décharger des pièces pour une machine à décorer comprend au moins un dispositif de préhension pour soutenir une pièce lors de son changement d'orientation, d'une première orientation à une seconde. La pièce, dans la première orientation, présente un axe central longitudinal orienté selon l'une des directions verticale et horizontale. Dans la seconde orientation, la pièce présente l'axe selon l'autre des directions verticale et horizontale. Un dispositif d'entraînement donne un mouvement de va-et- vient au dispositif de préhension et à la pièce prise, généralement parallèle à un axe de rotation, tout en faisant tourner le dispositif de préhension et la pièce donc prise selon l'axe de rotation. L'axe de rotation forme des angles précis avec l'axe central longitudinal de la pièce dans chacune des directions verticale et horizontale.
