Apparatus for combining sheet-like products

摘要

The apparatus has a plurality of carrying elements (20) which are arranged at a distance one behind the other on a drawing member (14), driven in the circulating direction (U). The longitudinal direction (L) of the carrying elements (20) extends at an acute angle ( alpha ) with respect to the circulating direction. At the discharge locations (36), feed devices (12) discharge a sheet-like product to each carrying element (20) which is moved past said discharge locations. While having a considerable processing capacity and a relatively low circulating speed, the apparatus requires only a modest amount of space.
