摘要

A device for providing signature stacks (12) with endboards (11) and for conveying said stacks (12) from the shaft (6) wherein such stacks are formed to the signature-pressing station (7), comprising a single endboard storage unit (10) fitted with a mobile wall (13) and with a charging unit (18) featuring a mobile cursor (23) designed to effect to-and-fro strokes of varying lengths, so that endboards (11) for signat­ures of all types and sizes may be loaded. The device further comprises a slide (41) for conveying the stacks (12), designed to run between a first limit stop position corresponding to the above stacking shaft (6) and a second limit stop posi­tion corresponding to the stack (12) pressing or binding sta­tion. The travelling slide (41) is equipped with articulated side panels (51), so that stacks (12) made with signatures of any size whatever may be transferred from one location to the other.
