摘要 A method and an apparatus for stacking and destacking cylindrical as well as bulgy barrels which allow barrels to be stacked in several rows one on top of the other and to remove the rows of barrels one row after the other again. The apparatus includes a support frame with a storage bay for receiving the barrels. The storage bay includes a bottom feed and discharge opening through which several barrels which have been aligned in a row on a conveyor may be introduced into the bay. Means are provided for feeding the barrels to the feed and discharge opening, for aligning the barrels in a predetermined position, for lifting the barrels into the storage bay and for retaining the barrels within the bay.
