ABSTRACT:
Articles are counted into groups and deposited on a conveyor by each of several assemblies arranged along the conveyor. The assemblies are positioned and synchronized so that each assembly deposits articles directly on top of the articles deposited by the previous assembly to form stacks of articles. Each assembly includes a pair of wheels having vacuum ports around their periphery to carry articles and a serrated pick off wheel of smaller diameter positioned between the vacuum wheels. The pick off wheel removes articles from the end of a delivery chute and positions them on the vacuum wheels. The serrations are discontinuous around the periphery of the pick off wheel to count off spaced groups of articles.
