ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for feeding separate pieces of sheet material from a continuous supply thereof to individual articles travelling along a predetermined path and positioning a piece of sheet material under each article. The articles are conveyed sequentially along the predetermined path, and the sheet material is fed from a continuous supply thereof to a cutting station. At the cutting station, pieces of sheet material are cut from the continuous supply, and the pieces of sheet material are fed from the cutting station to an article conveyor for entrainment between the underside of an article and the conveyor at a material positioning station. The articles are sensed as they travel along the predetermined path to the material positioning station. Feeding and cutting control mechanisms are actuated by the article senser to cause the feed of sheet material to the cutting station to be commenced when the senser senses an article passing thereby, and to be stopped when the senser senses that the article has passed. The control mechanisms include a delay to cause operation of the cutter to cut a piece of sheet material from the continuous supply a predetermined time after the senser actuates the control mechanisms to stop the feed of material. The predetermined time is sufficient to ensure that feed of sheet material has actually stopped before the cutter operates.
