Device for the partial lifting of a bundle in a stack of paper sheets lying one on top of the other

摘要

The invention relates to a device for the partial lifting of a bundle in a stack of paper sheets lying one on top of the other. At one edge of the stack, a plurality of paper sheets are lifted simultaneously and held fixed in the lifted position. The top paper sheet of the lifted paper sheets is seized from above and shifted on the paper sheet or sheets lying therebelow such that a tunnel forms between the point at which the paper sheets are held fixed and the point of action on the top paper sheet. The top paper sheet is then held from below by a supporting element inserted into the tunnel, so that it can be released in the edge region. The next paper sheet is lifted up in the same manner and then held together with the first paper sheet. IMAGE
