ABSTRACT:
Device for separating a mixture of objects of flat dimension and objects of spatial dimension with a conveying device comprising at least one conveying carrier. The conveying device comprises two boundaries to which tangents proceeding in the conveying direction may be joined, and a feeding device for feeding a stream of objects to be separated to the conveying device substantially in one layer. In order to allow a reliable separation of foils and bodies of spatial dimension, it is provided that the conveying carrier is penetrable by air or that gaps for the passing through of air are provided between the conveying carriers. A surface tangent to the upper side of the conveying carrier(s) defines a line of intersection with a plane standing rectangularly to the conveying direction, which line forms an angle with the horizontal. A casing connected to a source of underpressure for the drawing in of air through the gaps between the conveying carriers or through the conveying carrier respectively is arranged below the conveying carrier(s) in an area following the feeding area in the conveying direction, the edges of this casing substantially being sealed to the bottom side of the conveying carrier(s).
