Abstract
An apparatus has pocket-like receiving parts into which printed products are introduced by feeders. Each receiving part is assigned clamps that can be moved to transport the printed products in the longitudinal direction of the receiving part. The movement path of the clamps runs along the opening of the receiving part, and the clamps retain the printed products at their border region remote from the base of the receiving part.
