  10. Dispositif selon l'une des revendications 5 à 9, caractérisé en ce que le levier de réception (22) porte une tête de réception (223) générant une force de retenue pour l'article à recevoir (9) et présentant au moins une partie en col (224), concave, formant le logement transversal mobile (212), qui est exécutée sur le côté de la tête de réception (223) orienté à l'opposé de la surface de transport transversal (14) et de l'extrémité libre du levier de réception (22).
  11. Dispositif selon l'une des revendications 1 à 10, caractérisé en ce que le transporteur transversal comprend un corps de révolution (31) à la surface périphérique duquel, laquelle forme la surface de transport transversal (14), sont disposés les logements transversaux fixes (211), de préférence aux extrémités libres de nervures cylindriques (311) dépassant radialement.
  12. Dispositif selon l'une des revendications 1 à 11, caractérisé en ce que les logements transversaux fixes et mobiles (211, 212) alternant au niveau de la surface de transport transversal (14) sont disposés selon le même écartement (B) et au moins sensiblement au même niveau.

  15. Dispositif selon l'une des revendications 1 à 14, caractérisé en ce que le transporteur transversal (11) comprend un corps de révolution (32) dont la surface périphérique forme la surface de transport transversal (14), et en ce que le logement transversal mobile (212) de chaque paire de logements (21) est disposé et guidé le long de sa trajectoire (23) de façon telle que le trajet depuis qu'il quitte la surface de transport (14) jusqu'à ce qu'il soit dans la position de prise, se situe dans une plage de rotation angulaire du corps de révolution (31) de 90°, le logement transversal mobile (212) étant soulevé de la surface de transport (14) de préférence dans la zone du point le plus bas du corps de révolution (31) et étant guidé dans le plan de prise horizontal (20) au niveau d'un point le plus latéral du corps de révolution (32).
  16. Dispositif selon l'une des revendications 1 à 15, caractérisé en ce que le logement transversal mobile (212) de chaque paire de logements de prise en charge (21) est disposé et guidé le long de sa trajectoire (23) de façon telle que le trajet depuis qu'il quitte le plan de prise (20) jusqu'à ce qu'il soit dans la position de transport au niveau de la surface de transport transversal (14), se situe dans une plage de rotation angulaire du corps de révolution (31) de 90°, le logement mobile (212) parvenant dans la position de transport au niveau de la surface de transport transversal (14), de préférence, dans la zone du point le plus haut du corps de révolution (31).
  17. Dispositif selon l'une des revendications 1 à 16, caractérisé en ce que le dispositif de transport (1) comprend un transporteur de transfert (12) ayant plusieurs paires de logements de transfert (41) formées par des logements longitudinaux (411, 412), qui correspondent par paires avec les logements transversaux de prise en charge (211, 212), l'agencement étant tel, que chaque logement de transfert (411, 412) reçoit sur des trajectoires parallèles (132, 133) des articles en forme de tige (9) amenés suivant leur axe longitudinal et, en conservant leur positionnement mutuel parallèle, les transporte dans un plan de déplacement d'avance (40) dans la direction transversale à l'axe, dans le plan de prise (20), le logement transversal mobile (212) de chacune des paires de logements de prise en charge (21) étant disposé et guidé le long de sa trajectoire (23) de façon telle que, vu dans la direction de transport transversal (Q), il parvienne dans des positions devançant le plan d'avance (40) de la paire de logements de transfert correspondante (41), depuis lesquelles il est déplacé dans sa position de prise dans le plan de prise (20) selon un écartement d'avance (V) qui diminue jusqu'à zéro.
