ABSTRACT:
A side-gripping conveyor arrangement functions to transport a steam of mutually overlapping newspapers carried by a substantially horizontal conveyor belt with one edge margin of the newspaper stream extending freely over one side of the conveyor belt. The conveyor arrangement includes a conveyor chain (30) which is guided along the edge margin of the newspaper stream and which supports spring clips (20) having legs (22) which are biased towards one another. The legs carry mutually opposing gripping elements (23) which are guided between an open and a closed position by means of guide arms (24) attached to the legs (22) of the U-shaped clip. The legs are also provided with slide buttons (27) which run on cam paths (50) for effecting the opening and closing movement of the clips (20).
