ABSTRACT:
A dual auger stacking device for use with a document sorting and conveying apparatus defining a document path and including a plurality of gates for diverting documents from the path into a preselected document receiving station of a plurality of such stations. Each station has a support structure for supporting planar surfaces of documents diverted by the gates and directing the documents into the receiving station. The stacking device includes a base plate upon which lower edges of sorted documents are conveyed upon being diverted by the gates, and an auger assembly operationally disposed relative to the base plate for pulling trailing edges of documents away from the support structure, for loosening documents stacked at the support structure for which the trailing edges have been pulled away, and for displacing the loosened documents into the document receiving station in a direction normal to the document path.
