ABSTRACT:
Stacks of flat items, such as cookies, are formed by conveying the items in successive pockets along a conveying path and moving vertical rod assemblies parallel to the conveying path but at a different speed from the pockets so as to cause the rods to engage items in each pocket and push them onto items in an adjacent pocket, whereby each rod assembly forms a stack of progressively increasing height as the pockets and rod assemblies travel along a common path.
