Abstract:
A device and a method for discharging objects having an axially symmetrical base surface. The axially symmetrical base surface has the shape of regular polygon with a five-fold axial symmetry. The device comprises an aligning unit, a discharge unit, and a transport unit, on which the objects are conveyed in a single row and in a mutually spaced manner from the aligning unit to the discharge unit. At least one railing is provided on one side of the transport unit at least in the region of the aligning unit.

Claim (Index 1):
A device for discharging objects each having an axially symmetrical base surface, wherein the axially symmetrical base surface has the shape of a regular polygon with a three-, five-, or seven-fold axial symmetry, comprising:\n an aligning unit, a discharge unit, a transport unit, on which the objects are conveyed in a single row and in a mutually space manner from the aligning unit to the discharge unit, and at least one railing arranged on one side of the transport unit at least in the region of the aligning unit, wherein the aligning unit is configured such that the objects are pressed against the railing and are thereby aligned such that an axis of symmetry of the base surface in the transport plane extends perpendicularly to the railing and wherein the objects are then transported to the discharge unit in this orientation, and wherein the discharge unit is oriented such that one of the corners of the base surface of the objects points in the direction in which the objects are discharged.
