ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for subdividing a web of exposed and developed photographic paper into discrete prints has advancing rolls which move the web lengthwise in stepwise fashion to place successive frame lines into register with a severing device which is thereupon actuated to sever the web in order to separate the foremost print. Such print comes to rest on the wings of two turnable depositing devices which flank the path for the prints downstream of the severing device and are thereupon operated to rotate the wings in opposite directions so as to allow the print thereon to descend onto a composite stacking platform therebelow. The depositing devices have rotary hubs or plate-like orienting members which align the print on the wings with the prints of the stack therebelow. A hold-down plate is provided above the path for the prints to maintain the marginal portions of successive freshly separated prints in contact with the wings while the wings are held in the operative positions immediately below the path for the prints. The leaders and trailing ends of the webs are longer than the prints, and such sections of the webs are caused to enter the nip of auxiliary advancing rolls which transport them forwardly so that the longer sections cannot be transferred onto the stacking platform.
