However, the conventional article extruding apparatus does not take sufficient measures against the case of handling articles having different outer shapes such as a body diameter, regardless of the type of the target article being constant. I couldn't say it. Therefore, for example, when the target article is switched to a type having a different barrel diameter, the interval between the pushing plates for pushing the article does not match the barrel diameter, and the article and the pushing plate are separated from each other. There is a drawback that a gap is generated between them to cause a trouble such as a fall, and further, a range of a cylinder diameter that can be dealt with is narrowed to reduce flexibility. In view of this situation, the present invention eliminates the above-mentioned drawbacks of the prior art,
It is an object of the present invention to provide an article ejecting device which is improved so as to be able to handle articles having different outer shapes such as a body diameter without any trouble.

According to the present invention, the following effects can be obtained based on the above constitution. (1) During the pushing stroke of the article, the spacing between the pushing plates is adjusted so as to abut the article, so troubles such as falls due to the gap therebetween are eliminated. Even when pushing different types of articles with different outer diameters etc., it is possible to cope without problems, not only expanding the applicable range but also the aligned state of the articles after extrusion is close to each other and good. Since it is in a perfect alignment, the next process such as box packing can be performed as it is, which is extremely effective in terms of work efficiency. (2) On the other hand, at the time of the return stroke, the distance between the guide members of the conveyor, that is, the width of each lane can be always matched regardless of the distance between the pushing plates during the pushing stroke. The work of inserting the pushing plate between the rows of articles can be favorably performed. (3) When the pressing plates are connected to each other by providing a predetermined play by the connecting member, the distance between the pressing plates at the time of the push stroke and the return stroke can be easily selected by selecting the play. In addition to being regulated, its structure is simple and resistant to breakdown.
