ABSTRACT:
An inclined cassette for holding and indexing a stack of planar items. The cassette includes a floor that is inclined at an angle sufficient to overcome the coefficient of friction of the planar items such that they slide to the lowermost corner of the floor. Two upstanding wall portions intersect each other at the lowermost corner to align the cards in a vertical stack, i.e., in a stack at an angle to the vertical. An elongated opening is provided in the wall portions at the corner, which opening extends upwardly from the location of the floor. The cassette further includes a base means for supporting the cassette in the inclined manner and in a manner that precisely locates the cassette for repeatable automatic removal of the planar items from the cassette.
