ABSTRACT:
A star feeder type of drum (12) has pocket-shaped compartments (14) and saddle-type supports (46) disposed alternately about a common axis of rotation. Each compartment (14) contains a carriage which is guided in a rail (44) and has a bottom (86) and at least one clamp (54). The clamp (54) is controlled independently of the movement of the carriage by shifting a rail section (56). For collation and insertion, printed sheets (34) are fed into the compartments (14) at a first feed point. These printed sheets (34) are seized by the appropriate clamps (86) during the rotation of the drum (12) in the direction of the arrow (U) and are conveyed to the next feed point, where further printed sheets (34) are fed into the compartments (14). In the course of further revolutions the printed sheets (34) thus collated or inserted are conveyed to a removal point. During collection the printed sheets (34) are placed astride the supports (46), so that each printed sheet (34) is held by each of its halves extending into a compartment (14) by a clamp (54) for conveyance along the supports (46) during rotation in the direction of the arrow (U).
