ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for bundling elongated workpieces includes a generally U-shaped trough having a vertically movable bottom wall for adjusting the depth of the trough. A horizontally and vertically movable pusher feeds the workpieces transversely of their length toward the trough for positioning a plurality of the workpieces in side-by-side relationship to form a horizontal row. Horizontally movable support rails are movable selectively between a position extending across the trough spaced above its movable bottom wall wherein a new row of workpieces is positioned on the rails, and a position displaced from the trough for allowing the new row of workpieces to glide in stacking relationship on a previous row of workpieces resting on the movable bottom wall. A slope structure is inclined downwardly toward the pusher. A movable stop is positioned adjacent the lower end of the slope structure, and is movable between a stopping position for stopping workpieces moving down the slope toward the trough and a retracted position for allowing movement of workpieces therepast into the trough by operation of the pusher.
