ABSTRACT:
In a sheet set feeder, a shutter mechanism disposed at least in part beneath a hopper for receiving a stack of offset-jogged sheet sets defines an aperture sized to admit individual sets from the stack. The shutter mechanism is driven so that the aperture is moved from beneath one end of the bottommost sheet set--where a retainer supports the next-to-bottommost sheet set--to beneath the other end of the bottommost set. Individual sets fed by the feeder are then carried by a conveyor to a sheet set processor.
