ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus wherein flat corrugated paperboard sheets in stacks are rearranged into a horizontally shingled array of the desired faced orientation and fed toward an exit in the apparatus, each stack being fed onto a conveyor, then tilted to a first posture wherein the sheets are not yet in the horizontally shingled array, but are supported with their edges resting on the conveyor and with their faces making an acute angle with the conveyor, the sheets then being moved toward the exit while supported on their edges in the first posture, and then being dropped from the first posture into a second posture, wherein the sheets are in the shingled array, and into juxtaposition with shingled sheets of a previous stack on the conveyor for establishing a flow of continuously shingled sheets toward the exit.
