Abstract

L'invention concerne un appareil destiné à alimenter automatiquement à grande vitesse une unité de tri avec des objets tels que des paquets ou des lettres. L'appareil utilise une source de vide intermittent ou d'autres dispositifs de préhension pour saisir l'article et le déplacer d'une unité d'alimentation vers une unité de tri. Le dispositif de préhension peut être placé sur une boucle continue adjacente à l'unité d'alimentation et à l'unité de tri.
