Abstract
A stacker device () for flat articles () stacked on edge, said device including a retaining paddle () mounted to be moveable along the stacking path (E) between an upstream position and a downstream position, and between a working position in which it interferes with said stacking path (E) and a resting position in which it does not interfere with said stacking path (E), a holding finger () suitable for being in a deployed position in which it interferes with said stacking path (E) so as to receive the foot of a flat article () bearing against it, and mounted to be moveable along said stacking path (E) between a rear position and a front position, said holding finger () and said retaining paddle () being independent from each other so that said holding finger () retains said foot of the flat article () even when said retaining paddle () is in its resting position.
