ABSTRACT:
In a hosiery handling apparatus wherein a string of hosiery is placed on a movable hollow tubular form, and everted through the open end of the form, a reciprocating arm grasps the first in-line hose and breaks it away from the string. The arm then pulls the hose across the top of a horizontal platform to a predetermined, fixed location on the platform. During the pulling operation, frictional resistance (drag) between the hose and platform tends to straighten the hose. An upstanding guide member, formed on the platform, prevents the hose from moving laterally off the platform. After the hose is located on the platform, the platform is tilted downwardly to dump the hose into a neat stack in a tray located beneath the platform. This readies the hose for a subsequent seaming operation.
