Stacks (S3, S4, S5) are stored on a long delivery belt (3). A transfer belt conveyor (2) is arranged downstream of the delivery belt (3), removes individual folding box blanks from the underside of a stack (S2) and delivers them to a store (1), the filling height of which is sensed by means of sensors 12, 13 which turn the transfer belt conveyor (2) on or off by way of a control member (14). When a sensor (23) at the transfer belt conveyor signals the need for a new stack, the delivery belt (3) is set in motion by way of a control member (26) and a stack (S3) is moved onto the empty transfer belt conveyor (2). The device enables the stack height in the store (1) to be maintained at a certain minimum height, so that the stack pressure only varies slightly and the conditions for the removal of blanks from the store essentially remain the same. <IMAGE> |
