ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for delivering fibrous insulation batts comprises an upstream batt receiving section and a downstream batt delivering station, the upstream batt receiving station being adapted for two modes of operation, the first mode being for folding batts and delivering folded batts to the downstream batt delivering station and the second mode for delivering unfolded batts to the downstream batt delivering station, the upstream batt receiving station comprising a conveyor belt for transporting batts through the upstream batt receiving station, a plurality of rolls for guiding the conveyor belt along a first path in the first mode of operation, means for moving at least one of the rolls to guide the conveyor belt along a second path for the second mode of operation, a support member spaced apart from the conveyor, thereby defining a gap between the conveyor belt in the first mode of operation and the support member, the support member being adapted to support a portion of the batt as it is transported off the downstream end of the conveyor belt, a folding plate member reciprocally mounted to engage the batt near its midsection and push the batt through the gap and into engagement with the downstream batt delivering station, thereby folding the batt.
