Abstract
An apparatus for clamping individual pieces of textile fabric exiting a fusing machine conveyor 13, for withdrawing the fabrics until the trailing edges thereof clear a photocell sensor 42, and for stacking the fabrics with aligned leading edges on a hinged and vertically movable table 19 includes a withdrawable stacking rake 21 and a cooperable, vertically movable clamping plate 20. The rake and plate comprise a plurality of laterlly spaced, longitudinally oriented prongs 38 and rods 37, respectively, which are relatively staggered such that they may be partially interleaved during operation to clamp a piece of fabric therebetween.
