ABSTRACT:
A method and an apparatus for feeding substantially rectangular laundry articles to a laundry processing apparatus, such as an ironing roller, comprising alignment of the rear edge on the laundry article to a predetermined angle with respect to the direction of feed on a conveyor face, on which the laundry article is conveyed with the rear edge stretched, the position of the rear edge with respect to the conveyor face being detected at a plurality of locations on the rear edge transversely to the direction of feed, following which the rear edge is braked locally with respect to the conveyor face as it passes a straight line having the predetermined angle with respect to the direction of feed. This ensures that the alignment of the laundry article in the feeder can take place during the continued feeding of the laundry article on the conveyor face, thereby reducing the throughput time for a laundry article in the apparatus.
