The invention relates to conveying means and may be used to the utmost effectiveness in automatic continuous lines of performing operations on piles of printed newspapers. The apparatus is provided with a rollerway for conveying piles of newspapers, and discs mounted on respective shafts between the rollers of the rollerway. Each disc has two portions having different profiles, and on one of the portions there is a semicircle, and the other portion a semi-ellipse, with the bisection line extending along the major axis of the original ellipse, and with the length of the minor axis of this ellipse being shorter than the spacing between the axis of the respective shaft and the load-supporting surface of the rollerway. This apparatus ensures the conveying of piles of newspapers without affecting their shape, and which features a simplified structure.
An apparatus for conveying piles of newspapers in mutually perpendicular directions, including a main driven rollerway having a load supporting surface for conveying piles of newspapers in a first direction, the rollers of the main rollerway being mounted to provide a space between each pair of the adjacent ones of the rollers, rotatable drive shafts, and discs mounted on the rotatable drive shafts in the spaces and serving to convey the piles of newspapers in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, the improvement that each roller of the main rollerway is provided with portions of reduced diameter, the number of the reduced portions being equal to the number of rotatable drive shafts, the rotatable drive shafts extending through the portions of reduced diameter under the main rollerway, each disc being constituted by two portions, one of the portions being a semi-circle and the other portion adjacent the one portion being a semi-ellipse, the length of the major axis thereof being equal to the diameter of the semi-circle, and the length of the minor axis thereof being shorter than the spacing between of the axis of the shaft and the load supporting surface of the main rollerway on which the pile of newspapers is being conveyed.
