In FIGS. 1 and 2, a lightweight plastic container 1 is placed over two plates 2 and the article according to the present invention. Two parallel guides 4 by the intermittent feeding device 3
Is guided to the plate 2 and is intermittently conveyed in the horizontal direction on the plate 2. In the illustrated embodiment, a new container is supplied to the position of the container on the right side, and three containers are simultaneously moved from that position to the left intermittently by the pitch of each container,
When the container on the left side in the drawing is further moved leftward by one pitch, the container is discharged by a device (not shown). The intermittent supply device 3 is disposed below the plate 2 in parallel with the guide 4 and is provided in the frame 11
It is provided with two guide rods 12 fixed to each other, and a movable block 13 is provided on the guide rods 12 so as to be movable back and forth. An air cylinder device 14 as a first drive means is attached to one side of the guide rod 12, and the cylinder rod 15 of the air cylinder device 14 is connected to the movable block 13 to move the movable block 13 to the right side of FIG. The line end position (first stop position) and the left line end position (second stop position) can be moved forward and backward. Two parallel rods 16 are fixed to the movable block 13 in the vertical direction, and a conveying member 17 is provided on the rod 16 so as to be movable back and forth. Support beams 18 are attached to the movable block 13 in parallel to the side portions of the two rods 16, and the upper ends of the support beams 18 and the rods 16 are connected and fixed by connecting members 19. This allows the rod 16 to move the movable block 1
It is attached to 3 in a cantilever manner. The conveying member 17 is provided so as to straddle the two parallel rods 16, a supporting portion 17A extending in the forward / backward movement direction of the movable block 13 is provided at an intermediate portion thereof, and the supporting portion 17A is equally spaced. Three engaging portions 17B protruding upward are formed. When the transport member 17 is located at the rising end, the engaging portions 17B project upward from the intermediate position of the two plates 2 and can be brought into contact with the container 1, respectively, and the transport member 17 is located at the descending end. When positioned, each of the engaging portions 17B is retracted below the plate 2 so that it cannot contact the container 1. The second driving means for moving the carrying member 17 up and down moves the first moving means for moving the carrying member 17 upward at the rightward end position of the movable block 13, and the carrying member 17 at the leftward end position of the movable block 13. And a second moving means for moving downward. That is, the second

Since the suction action with 35 is released, the transport member 17 falls by its own weight. When the transport member 17 reaches the lower end position, the movable block 13 is moved to the rightward end by the air cylinder device 14 and the above-described operation is repeated. Various modifications can be made to the above embodiment. For example, the first movable magnet 28 and the second movable magnet 29 provided on the transport member 17
Can be combined with one magnet, and the holding member 3
The upper fixed magnet 30 can be omitted by using 5 itself as a magnet. Further, if the length of the left part of the holding member 35 is shortened, the carrying member 17 will not move when the second movable magnet 29 of the carrying member 17 is attracted by the holding member 35 and is located at the rising end position. Since the second movable magnet 29 exceeds the holding member 35 when it reaches the left end, the fixed magnet 3 having the same pole
Even if 6 is not provided, the attraction action between the second movable magnet 29 and the holding member 35 can be released. Further, the intermittent supply device 3 can be arranged above the container 1. In this case, the engaging portion 17B of the transport member 17 may be projected downward from the movable block 13.

47 is fixed. On the other hand, a movable magnet 48 is fixed to the transport member 17, and the movable magnet 48 is located above the movable block and moves along with the horizontal movement of the transport member 17. From the position adjacent to one fixed magnet 44 of the same pole to the fixed magnet 4 of the other opposite pole
It is designed to be moved to a position adjacent to 5. On the other hand, the movable magnet 48 is arranged such that, in the lower position of the movable block, the fixed magnet 4 having one of the lower fixed magnets and having the same pole.
6 is moved from a position adjacent to 6 to a position adjacent to the fixed magnet 47 of the other opposite pole. Therefore, in the present embodiment, when the movable block (not shown) is located at the rising end, the conveying member 17 moves the upper fixed magnet 4
4 and the movable magnet 48, and the upper fixed magnet 4
5 is moved to the right by the attraction force between the movable magnet 48 and the movable magnet 48 and protrudes into the chute 41 to stop the drop of the container 1. When the movable block is lowered from this state by the first drive mechanism (not shown), the movable magnet 48 is lowered while being attracted by the holding member 43, that is, the state where the transport member 17 projects into the chute 41. Then, when the movable block reaches the lower end, the conveying member 17 is moved leftward by the repulsive force between the movable magnet 48 and the fixed magnet 46 and the attraction force between the movable magnet 48 and the fixed magnet 47, and is retracted from within the chute 41. It This releases the stop of the container 1 and drops the container 1. When the conveying member 17 reaches the left end,
The movable block is raised by the first drive mechanism, and at this time, the movable magnet 48 is raised while being held by the holding member 42, that is, the conveying member 17 is retracted from the chute 41. When the movable block reaches the rising end, the conveying member 17 is moved rightward by the repulsive force between the movable magnet 48 and the fixed magnet 44 and the attraction force between the fixed magnet 45 and the movable magnet 48, and thereafter, the same operation is performed.
