ABSTRACT:
A folder and stacker for towels, or other articles, wherein the stacker includes an upwardly concave cradle for receiving a folded article and for providing the folded article with an upwardly concave, cross-sectional configuration, the cradle subsequently opening downwardly to permit the upwardly concave, folded article to drop by gravity onto a receiver therebeneath. Providing the folded article with an upwardly concave, cross-sectional configuration balances the air flows past the article on opposite sides thereof as it descends and thus insures that it will drop straight down under the influence of gravity, whereby a series of upwardly concave, folded articles dropped downwardly onto a receiver will be formed into a neat stack. The receiver may be a conveyor which is advanced one step as each stack is completed.
