ABSTRACT:
A conveyor is provided for accepting sheets moving in one direction from a duplicator and conveying them at an angle to the initial direction; e.g., 90.degree.. The conveyor consists of rollers of relatively large diameter arranged with close spacing so that sheets of paper will pass easily from one to the other, and entering sheets will find fairly continuous support whatever their size. The rollers are set at an angle to the desired feed path to provide an effect urging the sheets towards a side alignment stop and the construction is such that the angular roller setting may be readily made during manufacture, to act towards whichever side of the feed path is selected as the one to carry the alignment stop surface. Means are provided for controlling the sheets during transfer from one conveyor to the other, and for instantaneous acceleration in the second direction by the roller conveyor, permitting handling of closely spaced sheets at high sheet frequency without danger of interference between adjacent sheets which might result in jamming.
