Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1321311A2] Device for moistening envelope flaps comprises at least a pair or transport rollers (18A), a separator (12) for separating the envelope flap from the body and a moistener (14A, 14B). Suction means (20) are placed just before the separator and act in conjunction with a sprung pressing finger (30) so that envelopes are pressed down towards the suction means so that the flap can be lifted away from the envelope allowing its passage through the separator without damage occurring.
