Abstract
A method of uniting at least two streams of shingled products, particularly folded paper products, in which the individual products of the two product streams and/or the united product stream are drawn apart on at least one partial section inter alia by means of a clock generator which consists of an endless belt rotating at an elevated speed and an intermittently operating pressing-on device synchronized with the conveying device.
Claims3
A method of uniting at least two streams of shingled paper products and the like, comprising the steps of passing a first stream of shingled products along a moving conveyor;
- passing a second stream of shingled products along a second conveyor at a higher elevation than said first conveyor;
- synchronizing the movement of the first product stream with the movement of the second product stream;
- merging the second stream of shingled products with the first stream of shingled products by ejecting the second stream from the higher elevation second conveyor to the first conveyor;
- and separating the merged first and second streams into a non-shingled single product stream by drawing out the merged first and second streams.
