ABSTRACT:
An improved machine and apparatus are disclosed for assisting in decollating or separating the separable parts of a multi-part, carbonless, manifold, continuous web business forms assembly having integral "locks" incorporated therein that are utilized to hold the parts of the continuous web business forms assembly in alignment when the continuous web business forms assembly is used on high speed printing device. The improved machine has a plurality of decollating stations arranged in series, and each station includes a refold roller. The part of the continuous web business forms assembly being separated at a decollating station passes about and contacts the refold roller. The improved apparatus is mounted on the machine and includes an axle having two or three wheels rotatably mounted therein, with the first, relatively small diameter wheel being in contact with and driven by the refold roller, with the second and third wheels being in contact with the separated part of the continuous web business forms assembly as it passes around the refold roller, and with the first, second and third wheels being interconnected so that they rotate together and so that as a result of the difference in the speeds of the peripheral surfaces of the wheels, the second and third wheels impart a separating force to the separated part of the continuous web business forms assembly to assist in breaking the "locks" in the business forms assembly.
