ABSTRACT:
Folded printed products are conveyed in a first imbricated formation up to a stop by a first conveying device. In the first imbricated formation each printed product rests on the following printed product with its leading bottom edge formed by its folded edge. At the stacking location formed by the stop, the printed products are stacked up in layers to form an intermediate stack. The uppermost printed product is moved by a lifting member into the conveying region of a removal conveyor and then to a further-processing station. The removal conveyor has a conveying wheel that is driven synchronously with the lifting member, and a pressing-on member that, as a strand of a belt conveyor, is assigned to a part of the circumferential surface of the conveying wheel. The conveying wheel and the pressing-on member together form a guidance gap for the printed products. The conveying wheel is provided with a plurality of cutouts that are distributed uniformly on the circumferential surface. The folded edges of the printed products are introduced individually into the cutouts by the lifting member. The printed products are then directed into the guidance gap by virtue of the rotation of the conveying wheel. A second imbricated formation is formed, in which, once again, each printed product rests on the following printed product and the leading folded edge is located at the bottom.
