ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method are disclosed for receiving a continuous stream of forms at high speed and automatically stacking the forms into discrete batches of accurate count. The forms are first shingled into a uniform and accurate shingle by spiral screws, kickers, rollers, and hold down tapes which positively and forcefully drive the forms uniformly and accurately onto a conveyor. The forms are then stacked and collected on a vertically reciprocable tray until the desired count is reached, at which time finger hooks intercept and engage the shingle to stop the leading edges of the forms destined for the next batch. A conveyor diverting roller separates the leading edges of the forms for this purpose. Those forms downstream from the finger hooks are then quickly swept onto the elevator tray which deposits them on a discharge conveyor for delivery from the apparatus.
