ABSTRACT:
Stacker apparatus includes a bottom support platform movable downwardly from an upper elevation for receiving and forming a stack of flat articles such as newspapers or the like. The support platform in its upper elevation first moves generally downwardly with snap acting intercept motion for intercepting the leading edge of a flat article to begin formation of a new stack. The support platform then moves downwardly with stack forming motion different from the intercept motion. An input mechanism feeding a stream of overlapped newspapers generally flatways into the stacker apparatus includes a dump gate for deflecting the stream of newspapers away from the stacker when a jam occurs.
