ABSTRACT:
A method for unpacking contents from an envelope in which the envelope is at least weakened along three folding edges and a first panel of the envelope is folded over relative to a second panel about a fourth folding edge. The contents are separated from the envelope and are delivered, and the envelope is discharged separately from its contents. An envelope separated from its contents is discharged along a discharge track from which the envelope can be intercepted. Each time contents from an associated envelope are delivered, an interval of time follows before the associated envelope is discharged. An apparatus for unpacking contents from an envelope includes an arrangement for separating first and second panels of an envelope from one another along three folding edges, a device for separating an envelope from its contents, an arrangement for delivering the contents, and an arrangement for discharging an envelope separated from its contents to a discharge track at which the envelope can be removed from the discharge track. A control system activates the arrangement for discharging an envelope after passage of a time interval following delivery of the contents of the envelope.
