Abstract
At the end of a paper processing machine, a layer stack formed there is gripped by a gripper (16) and is delivered through a shorter linear movement either to a first transverse conveyor (24), or through a longer linear movement to a subsequent second transverse conveyor (25). Thus, during discharge with the particular transverse conveyor (24, 25), the other transverse conveyor (25, 24) can be loaded with a single or several sheet stacks. for overtravelling the first transverse conveyor (24) with a sheet stack, a moving bridge (20) is provided having bridge parts (44, 45), which project toward each other and are movable, and whereof one bridge part (45) simultaneously forms a support arm (64) for supporting the layer unit prior to deposition on the second transverse conveyor (25). This construction permits a very high discharge capacity and simultaneously varyingly high stacks can be collected and conveyed away.
