ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is disclosed for turning flat articles. The apparatus includes an apparatus for receiving a serial stream of the articles which are traveling along a first linear path, the path including a nonrotating surface. There is a rotating device which causes each article to rotate through a pre-selected angle. The device also steers the articles in a pre-selected direction by a roller. A guiding apparatus causes each article to be properly directed, and a conveying device causes each rotated article to be conveyed along a path which is parallel to the pre-selected direction of travel. The apparatus is utilized in executing a method for receiving, rotating and conveying the articles along the pre-selected direction.
