Abstract

An apparatus for unscrambling and erecting a plurality of non-vertical bottles includes a rotatable toothed cam wheel onto which bottles are dropped in an untimed sequence from a first conveyor table. The bottles are then conveyed by the rotatable toothed cam wheel in an erected condition to a second conveying table, with the alternate teeth of the toothed cam wheel simultaneously and directly urging the erected bottles from their stalls.
