direction parallel to an accumulation direction between a loading end and an
unloading end of objects. The accumulation channels of the first group having
the loading ends aligned with each other and the accumulation channels of the
second group having the loading ends aligned with each other. The apparatus
further includes at least a first and a second transfer device for
