ABSTRACT:
A conveyor is mounted on the upper surface of an elongated frame. At one end of the conveyor is provided a retriever assembly for retrieving a stack of material as from the exit bin or tray of a printer or copier. The retriever has elongated fingers sandwiched between runs of the conveyor. These fingers are moved horizontally and vertically so as to move out from the conveyor, pick up a stack of material, bring it back and deposit it on the conveyor. Independent motor operated mechanism effects this vertical and horizontal movement of the fingers. The conveyor is of sufficient length to store several stacks of material and operation of the conveyor and the retriever is controlled to retrieve and store the stacked material.
