ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for palletizing/unitizing easily compressible articles comprises a station conveyor having a diverter for selectively positioning the articles longitudinally along a path defined by the rollers of the station conveyor, a turner for selectively orienting the articles transverse to the path, a layer accumulation stop for blocking the travel of individual articles while the articles are combined into a single layer, a flusher for tightening up the articles in a layer, a hand assembly for picking up entire layers of articles while subsequent layers are positioned below the hand assembly and for transporting multiple layers to the turntable of a palletizer, a platen assembly for maintaining the integrity of the stacked articles while they are on the turntable, and a lift for raising the stack during wrapping so that the articles can be underwrapped.
