<p>The pages of a book (12) being held at least partially open may be sequentially automatically turned over from one side of the book (12) to the other by pivoting an elongated arm (24) from one side of the book toward the other and turning over individual pages with a vacuum head (30) pivoting relative to the elongated pivoted arm about a different pivot axis as the elongated arm moves to reduce undesirable forces on the individual book pages being turned over. The vacuum head (30) may initially pivot to bend the edge of an individual page up away from the book, to aid in page separation, and then sequentially differently pivot to help peel the same page gently away from the vacuum head (30) and flip it over onto the opposite side of the book. This may be assisted by moving frictional belts (32) on the vacuum head (30).</p> |
