Abstract

The invention relates to a device for separating disc shaped elements from a stack (2). The device has a first belt conveyor device (6) and a second belt conveyor device (7). The first belt conveyor device (6) is provided for receiving in each case one disc-shaped element from a stack (2). The second belt conveyor device (7) is provided for further transport and for the depositing of the disc-shaped elements on a transport device (8) which leads further. The first and the second belt conveyor devices (6, 7) are connected to a device (VP) which generates a vacuum. A first belt of the first belt conveyor device (6) has first openings and a second belt of the second belt conveyor device (7) has second openings. Here the opening cross sections of the second openings are smaller than the opening cross sections of the first openings.

Dependent claims

A device for separating plate-shaped elements from a stack (2) with a first belt-conveyor device (6) and a second belt-conveyor device (7), wherein the first belt-conveyor device (6) is provided in each case for receiving one plate-shaped element (12) from the stack (2), and the second belt-conveyor device (7) is provided for further transport and for depositing the plate-shaped elements (12) on a further transport device (8, 8′);

wherein the first and the second belt-conveyor device (6, 7) are connected to a device (VP) for generating a vacuum pressure, and a first belt (10) of the first belt-conveyor device (6) provides first openings (30), and a second belt (13, 15) of the second belt-conveyor device CO provides second openings,
characterised in that
the opening cross-sections of the second openings are smaller than the opening cross-sections of the first openings, and
that the second openings in the second belt are introduced as cuts (31).
