Abstract (en)
An apparatus for removing signatures (42) from a hopper (24) includes a rotatable drum (52). A first feeder (62a) mounted within the drum removes a first signature (42a) from the hopper during rotation of the drum through a predetermined arcuate distance. A second feeder (62b) mounted within the drum partially removes a second signature (42b) from the hopper (24) during rotation of the drum through the predetermined arcuate distance before the feeding of the first signature from the hopper is completed. The second feeder engages the second signature and starts removal of the second signature from the hopper while the first feeder is finishing removal of the first signature from the hopper.
