ABSTRACT:
This device for picking up separately selected slack articles from a heap of articles disposed in a container comprises a movable handling arm adapted to be lowered into the container for picking up the selected article, for example a textile, just as it is or wrapped in a plasticizer film bag, and a pair of wheels rotatably mounted to the lower end of the handling arm and driven by suitable means. The handling arm is lowered into the container and then the wheels are caused to rotate in opposite directions in order to nip one article at a time therebetween. Finally, the arm is lifted off the container and the wheels are separated for releasing the article. The device is intended more particularly for use in the mail order trade.
