Abstract
An apparatus for the selective removal of an ultimate sheet of a flexible material from a stack thereof is comprised of a support member for the stack of sheets; a restraining member for applying a restraining force on the stack at one transverse edge thereof; and a pair of pivotal levers disposed adjacent opposing longitudinal edges of the stack, each lever being operatively connected to the restraining member and pivotally connected at first and second movable swivel points on a support member therefor, one swivel point allowing for longitudinal displacement of the lever and the other swivel point allowing for vertical displacement of the lever, in order that the restraining member is capable of being displaced in substantially constant vertical contact with the ultimate sheet in the stack during any subsequent dispensing operations.
