ABSTRACT:
Successive sections of a long stream of partially overlapping paper sheets are transferred onto the upper side of a relatively wide flexible elastic band which is indexed stepwise so that it is gradually withdrawn from a first reel and wound onto a second reel. Each section has two or more partially overlapping sheets, and successive sections can be deposited on the band in such a way that they partially overlap one another, i.e., that the band supports and confines between its windings a scalloped stream consisting of partially overlapping sections of partially overlapping sheets. In order to remove the stored sheets, the conveyor which is used to transfer sections of the scalloped stream onto the band is used to remove successive sections from the band while the latter is driven stepwise to be withdrawn from the second reel and wound back onto the first reel. The thus removed sections are deposited onto the upper reach of a receiving conveyor, either by individually depositing successive sheets of a section or by simultaneously depositing the sheets of a complete section. The sheets on the receiving conveyor can form a continuous scalloped stream or a series of discrete sections of an interrupted scalloped stream.
