ABSTRACT:
Flexible drapable sheets, such as cloth sheets or garments, are folded and stacked. A first horizontal conveyor conveys the garments past an automatic sewing machine to a lifting device which engages a middle portion of the garment and stuffs it into the inlet of a vertical second conveyor formed from two sets of horizontally spaced conveyor tapes. At a discharge end of the second conveyor, the garments are discharged onto a receiving surface formed by a number of bent wire sections interleaved with the conveyor tapes of the second conveyor. The receiving surface is flipped over (pivoted about a horizontal axis) to flip the folded over garment onto a platform above the first conveyor. The garments are stacked to a desired height on the platform.
