ABSTRACT:
A portable on-line tipping apparatus is intended for use with a signature inserting machine. The apparatus comprises (a) a frame assembly, (b) a drive system base mounted on the frame assembly which is capable of vertical adjustment, (c) an auxiliary chain drive system mounted on the base, (d) a raceway on the frame assembly for receiving a signature from a hopper of the signature inserting machine, (e) an adhesive applying mechanism on the frame assembly for directing a bead of adhesive to a signature, and (f) an elongated catch saddle positioned on above the raceway for properly positioning an insert so as to overlie the adhesive bead. The auxiliary chain drive system of the on-line tipping apparatus is driven by the main conveyor chain drive system of the signature inserting machine to ensure proper insert placement.
