ABSTRACT:
In a magazine for receiving, storing and delivering a long zigzag foldable belt having successive sections thereof stacked one upon another in upwardly bowed postures between zigzag folds bearing against oppositely disposed, downwardly convergent guide walls, proper placement of successive incoming belt sections on the stack within the magazine is effected, without need for precise synchronization of the feeding of the belt with the movement of fold positioning mechanism, by engagement of the entering belt folds with portions of continuously moving carriers, such as toothed belts or rollers protruding into and driven substantially vertically downwardly along upper regions of the magazine at the opposite sides thereof, which carrier portions displace the successive entering folds downwardly and lay them gently into their proper stacked position. The invention is particularly useful for stacking sections of a prefolded endless belt of photoconductive sheet material employed as the image forming medium in indirect electrophotographic copying machines.
