<p>This sorting machine comprises an unstacker (10) suitable for putting mailpieces on edge, address recognition means (20, 25) for recognizing the addresses of said mailpieces, and a conveying zone (2, 3, 4) for conveying the mailpieces by nipping them, which zone is made up of an unstacking zone (1) extending from the unstacker, and of a sorting zone (3) having a plurality sorting outlets (S1-SN), distributed from an upstream sorting outlet (S1) adjacent to the unstacker, to a downstream sorting outlet (SN). In accordance with the invention, said machine further comprises a recirculation zone (4) interconnecting the downstream sorting outlet (SN) and the upstream sorting outlet (S1), said recirculation zone co-operating with the unstacking zone (1) to define a point of confluence (C) situated between the unstacker and the upstream sorting outlet.</p> |
