PURPOSE:To enable blanks having different quality to be securely taken out one by one by lifting and transferring an arm supporting a pad for absorbing the blank to a predetermined position after moving horizontally it into a hopper by a predetermined amount. CONSTITUTION:When blanks 7 stacked in a hopper 6 are taken out one by one to be transferred to a predetermind position, first a support arm 1 is operated to put a blank absorbing pad 3 against the blank 7 to adsorb it by vacuum. Then, said pad 3 is moved inward to shift only the absorbed blank 7a and then lifted slightly to hook the underside blank 7b projecting from an end of said blank 7a on a hook portion 6a of the hopper 6 and separately drop said blank 7b. The pad is continuously further lifted to be transferred to a predetermined position so that only the upper side blank 7a is taken out to be transferred to a predetermind position. |
