ABSTRACT:
Apparatus gathering writing pads into stacks has a row of receptacles disposed at a level below the discharge end of a feeding conveyor which delivers several lines of pads, one for each receptacle. The receptacles have a common horizontal floor assembled of spaced-apart elongated strips mounted in a main frame and extending in the longitudinal direction of the row, and the receptacles are separated from each other by separating units having sets of upright rods which extend upwardly through the spaces between the neighboring strips and can be lowered to move out of the way preparatory to removal of assembled stacks of pads by two endless conveyor belts which flank the row of receptacles and have inner reaches movable into engagement with the respective sides of the stacks. The conveyor belts are set in motion after their inner reaches engage the stacks and after the rods are retracted to a level below the floor. The separating units are adjustable lengthwise of the row of receptacles, and certain rods of each separating unit are further movable transversely of the row of receptacles by a carriage which supports one of the belts and is movable toward the other belt, in order to convert the apparatus for the accumulation of stacks consisting of larger, smaller, wider or narrower pads.
