ABSTRACT:
A number of substantially zig-zag folded webs, each of which are formed by sheets connected at fold locations or lines, are successively placed upon a revolvingly driven drum member. The webs come into contact with each second fold location upon a support rib or web, these support ribs extending radially away from the surface of the drum member and in the axial direction thereof. A separator or cutter device is arranged opposite each web at the drum member and serves to sever the web at the fold locations or lines bearing upon the support ribs. The separated sheets drop into the compartments formed between each two neighboring support ribs or webs and are retained therein by pressure fingers. During the revolving motion of the drum member the sheets are shifted in axial direction of the drum member into a position where they are aligned with the next following web. Upon the sheets separated from each web there come to bear the sheets previously separated from the other webs. The successive sheets are removed at a removal portion or section of the drum member and infed to a further processing station.
