METHOD AND DEVICE FOR AUTOMATICALLY SUPPLYING PACKAGES THAT HAVE BEEN SORTED BY TYPE TO A COLUMN STACKER, PREFERABLY IN A SORTING SYSTEM

摘要

The invention relates to a method and a device for automatically supplying packages that have been sorted by type to a column stacker, preferably in a sorting system having at least one supply path (2) on which the packages, which have been sorted by type, are automatically supplied to a column stacker (3) individually and chaotically distributed in partial stacks. The invention proposes that at least two packages (T1, T1) or partial stacks of packages (T2, T2 or T3, T3 or T4, T4 or T5, T5) - as long as said partial stacks are not already randomly present on the supply path (2) - of the same height disposed one directly behind the other be combined with the aid of a package register 1 before being supplied to the column stacker (3) simultaneously.
