Abstract
The apparatushas a conveyorwhich may be configured as a multiple tape conveyor and the working sectionof which, which is driven in a conveying direction (F), forms a supporting facefor the printed productswhich accumulate in an overlapping formation (S). An aligning plateis situated on each side of the conveyor. The working sectionof the conveyor can be deflected out of a conveying plane by means of a switching means, in order, in particular for the aligning of thin printed productswith few pages, to form a bendin the products which reinforces them transversely with respect to the conveying direction (F) so that they can be laterally shifted into alignment by the aligning plates without damage.
