ABSTRACT:
Apparatus and method for spacing apart individual articles within row(s) of articles. Spacing is achieved by causing relative vertical movement between two lifting tables situated end to end with a roller table with lifting strips designed to move within the openings defined between the spaced apart rollers in the roller table. Following such relative vertical movement the tables are moved apart horizontally from each other a predetermined distance in a first spacing step to provide spacing as required. After subsequent relative vertical movement to return the articles to the roller table the tables are further moved apart so that, on the next cycle of relative vertical and horizontal movement the tables will contact and move apart only those articles which require moving to form the further required spaces. In this manner articles in a row are sequentially spaced apart starting at the interior of the row and working outwardly towards the end thereof. This invention is particularly applicable to the spacing apart of brick mouldings.
