Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0442723A1] For roughly shingling stacks composed of flexible planar objects, such as fabric workpieces, a stack is placed over an axis connecting two hinged support surfaces (112, 114) one (114) of which is rotated relative to the other (112) to bend the workpieces and form a shingle with the trailing end of the stack (122) clamped to the first one (112, Fig. 2C). The other, leading end of the stack (122) is then clamped (Fig. 2D), the trailing end is released (Fig. 2E), and the support surfaces made parallel (Fig. 2F). For subsequent shingling, the rough shingled stack is driven on a conveyor (210) under a series of spreading rollers (222) having positive pressure to drive the rollers (222) onto the stack. <IMAGE>
