ABSTRACT:
An automatic folding machine especially adapted for shop towels. Such items, when fed into the machine, are automatically advanced from the feed board, dropped onto a belt where they fold by gravity about a center line, advanced in stacks of ten (or some other preselected number), rotated through 90.degree. to a horizontal attitude and discharged onto a conveyor table. After five such stacks (as determined by the operator) are accumulated in a bundle, the conveyor advances the bundle to a tying machine for tying to complete the processing.
The machine includes settable counters, separate towel count and stack count registers and related control and timing elements to achieve automatic operation of the functional components. A pacer light, controlled by a timer, is also provided to improve the feed rate established by the operator.
