摘要

The installation is fitted to a packaging machine to turn over flat objects from a horizontal to a vertical position and to place the objects standing on edge into a horizontal stack. There is a turning device continuously rotating in one direction which picks up the objects in a horizontal position and transfers them in a vertical position. A push out slider is fitted which moves through the rotating track of the turning device and makes contact behind the objects conveyed on it. The slider is positioned and controlled so that it slides the objects tangentially from the movement track of the turning device and then accelerated, slides them in a horizontal direction into the stack.
