To provide a method and device for temporarily storing molded parts fed from a chocorate molding plant, and allow the chocorate products to be placed in the environment completely shielded, during the period of temporarily storing the products.

Dies, each of which is filled with chocorate product, are introduced into a chamber, and these dies are moved along a flexed, advancing and retracting path in the chamber. The length of the flexed path is variable and changes with the number of dies 4 to be temporarily stored, and a pair of chains 3, on which the dies 4 are held, are moved along the fixed path passing through the chamber. Plural turning wheels 10, 11 adjacent to the boundary- wall having an inlet opening, are provided to be fixed up and down, and similarly, plural turning wheels 10, 11 adjacent to the wall on the opposite side, having an outlet opening, are provided to be fixed vertically in a line. A carriage 12 is supported on part between the fixed turning wheels 10, 11 groups, and the carriage 12 can move along a horizontal guide.
