An apparatus for storing and/or for forming essentially cuboidal packs, which are connected to one another by adhesive bonding and have folding flaps, having at least one drying turret which has at least two concentrically arranged rows of mounts or pockets (12, 13) for in each case one pack, namely a radially inner pocket ring and a radially outer pocket ring, which are disposed concentrically to one another, wherein the packs can be introduced in the axial direction into the pockets (12, 13), open at least on one axial side, and, following a partial revolution of the drying turret, can be pushed out of the same, wherein the packs can be fed to the drying turret by a transfer turret as an incrementally rotatable conveyor with a plurality of mounts for in each case one pack, wherein the mounts for in each case one pack are arranged individually one beside the other in the circumferential direction, characterized by the following features: a) the packs are removed individually one after the other from a single pack path and fed to the mounts, b) all adjacent packs, in the region of the transfer turret, are arranged at an angle to one another, on account of the polygonal arrangement of the mounts along the circumference of the transfer turret, c) the circumferentially adjacent pockets (12, 13) of a pocket ring (14, 15) are arranged at an acute angle to one another and at an angle to the imaginary radial plane of the drying turret, and adjacent, associated pockets (12, 13) of the two pocket rings (14, 15) are directed at an obtuse angle to one another, in coordination with the relative position of two adjacent mounts of the transfer turret, d) adjacent pockets (12, 13) of the two pocket rings (14, 15) are arranged in a relative position corresponding to the position of adjacent mounts of the transfer turret such that, during a joint standstill phase of the drying turret and transfer turret, simultaneously two packs can be pushed in the axial direction out of the mounts into associated, adjacent pockets (12, 13), e) the drying turret and the transfer turret, on account of the coordinated drive system, can be moved further at the same time until the following two packs, with the relevant mounts, pass into the region of the following associated pockets (12, 13), wherein the drying turret is rotated further by one increment while the transfer turret simultaneously executes two movement or switching steps. a) the packs are removed individually one after the other from a single pack path and fed to the mounts, b) all adjacent packs, in the region of the transfer turret, are arranged at an angle to one another, on account of the polygonal arrangement of the mounts along the circumference of the transfer turret, c) the circumferentially adjacent pockets (12, 13) of a pocket ring (14, 15) are arranged at an acute angle to one another and at an angle to the imaginary radial plane of the drying turret, and adjacent, associated pockets (12, 13) of the two pocket rings (14, 15) are directed at an obtuse angle to one another, in coordination with the relative position of two adjacent mounts of the transfer turret, d) adjacent pockets (12, 13) of the two pocket rings (14, 15) are arranged in a relative position corresponding to the position of adjacent mounts of the transfer turret such that, during a joint standstill phase of the drying turret and transfer turret, simultaneously two packs can be pushed in the axial direction out of the mounts into associated, adjacent pockets (12, 13), e) the drying turret and the transfer turret, on account of the coordinated drive system, can be moved further at the same time until the following two packs, with the relevant mounts, pass into the region of the following associated pockets (12, 13), wherein the drying turret is rotated further by one increment while the transfer turret simultaneously executes two movement or switching steps.
