ABSTRACT:
A container for containing a plurality of glass sheets in a stacked manner has at its bottom an opening through which rollers whose outer peripheries are polygonal and circular in section, respectively, are brought into contact with the undermost glass sheet. The container further has a glass sheet delivery slit with an opening height larger than the thickness of one glass sheet and smaller than the combined thickness of two glass sheets. The rotation of the two rollers causes the glass sheets to be vertically displaced to weaken the adsorptive force between the adjacent glass sheets and to be vibrated to weaken the frictional force between adjacent glass sheets. This results in a frictional force between the two rollers and the undermost glass sheet larger in magnitude than a frictional force between the adjacent glass sheets, which enables the undermost one of the glass sheets being stacked within the container to horizontally displace with the aid of the two rotating rollers. The displacement of the glass sheets other than the undermost glass sheet is restricted by the slit so as to permit only the undermost one to be smoothly transferred in sequence.
