Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0240691A1] 1. Process for the conversion of a continuous stream of sheets of paper (2) into packs (6) of the same or variable size, the sheets of paper (2) being placed one after the other with one edge onto a conveying plane and further transported on the conveying plane (13, 14) along a straight, first line of travel (5) and from the latter onto an adjoining second line of travel (23), the sheets of paper (2) being aligned along the first line of travel with their flat sides essentially perpendicular to the direction of conveyance and held compliantly at two edges along the first line of travel (5) and characterized in that the sheets of paper are placed onto the conveying plane (13, 14) with mutual spacing transported thereupon, in that a sheet of paper on the first line of conveyance is optionally accelerated in the direction of conveyance to a higher speed in such a way that it pushes any sheets (2) ahead of it on the first line of travel together and onto the second line of travel (23), the forwardmost sheet of a pack being retarded in the region of the second line of travel (23) by a flexible counterforce (21).
