Abstract
An apparatus for counting and collecting paperboards which counts, by a counting device, at an inlet thereof, the paperboards brought by a conveyor device, heaps them up successively from the bottom thereof by restraining their movement with a stopper disposed on the surface of a conveyor, and transfers them to a further process each time they are collected as many as a predetermined number, characterized in that the stopper is composed of a shaft for rotating itself intermittently in response to a signal from the counting device, a plurality of stopper members which are rockingly disposed around the shaft and which are urged in the rotational direction of the shaft, and torsion springs, disposed on the shaft, for restraining the rocking movement of each stopper member in the vicinity of an upright position thereof, and the shaft stops its intermittent rotation at a working position of each stopper member and at an approximately middle position between a stopper member at said working position and an adjacent stopper member.
