Abstract
A supply hopper for continuous forms, such supply hopper being collapsable to a compact storage position, and which, in its operative continuous forms stacking position, prevents double feeds. The supply hopper comprises a support for a stack of continuous forms. A side member is pivotally connected to the support for movement to a storage position overlying the support and an operative position relative (substantially perpendicular) to the support. A continuous forms guide is operatively coupled to the side member and cooperates therewith, so that when the side member is in its operative position the guide prevents double feed of such continuous forms, and when the side member is in its storage position forms a flat surface with the member.
