ABSTRACT:
A rotary transfer member carries means for picking up a sheet-like article from the top of a supply stack supported within a hopper having an open top and an open bottom. An indexing mechanism includes means for intermittently rotating an output shaft in response to a continuously driven input shaft, and the transfer member is supported for rotation with the output shaft and also for axial movement relative to the output shaft. The transfer member is moved axially in response to linear movement of a follower which engages a cam connected for continuous rotation with the input shaft. Supply stacks of articles are successively elevated into the hopper from an index table by a power driven jack mechanism, and a set of magnets are positioned adjacent the hopper for magnetically spreading and spacing the articles within the upper portion of the supply stack within the hopper.
