<p>An apparatus for transferring stacks of folded articles such as serviettes or the like, from a pile to a conveyor (3) includes retaining teeth (77) which retain the first article of a stack (P) and which are moved by the advancement of the articles. Separating means (47, 51) separate the first stack (P1) of articles from subsequent stacks (P2) and discharge means (83) discharge each single stack onto the conveyor (3). The separating means includes a first separating member (51) arranged to move between two adjacent stacks (P1, P2) of articles, and a second separating member (47), operating in conjunction with the first separating member (51), which also moves between the same two adjacent stacks of articles. The second separating member is provided with a further motion to move the first stack (P1) away from the subsequent one (P2) and hold it prior to the discharge thereof onto the conveyor (3). <IMAGE></p> |
