The apparatus, which serves to join flat supplementary products provided with an adhesive to printed products, has n holding elements which are driven on a circulating path about a first axis, by means of which supplementary products are gripped individually at at least one pick-up point and, after an appropriate rotation about the first axis, can be joined to a printed product at a discharge point. As they are transported from the pick-up point to the discharge point, the holding elements, which are mounted such that they can rotate about a second axis running at least approximately parallel to the first axis, are rotated about the second axis and guided into the area of the printed products, which are conveyed in a suspended manner and on a second path at least approximately tangentially to the circulating path, after which, at the discharge point, a printed product, opened if appropriate, is supported laterally by means of a leading or trailing holding element and, by means of the leading or trailing holding element, is joined to a supplementary product at an envisaged point. |
