Abstract:
A combination including individual sheets (10, 10', 10"") assembled to form a stack and apparatus for turning over the sheets (10, 10', 10"") from one side to another,the sheets (10, 10', 10"") comprising mutually parallel pivot pins (22) and being arranged to pivot thereabout, and the sheets (10, 10', 10"") each being provided with respective projections (12) rising above the respective pivot pins (22),a support (44) structured and arranged to engage the projections (12) such that a sheet (10) is turned over from one side to an opposite side thereof, whereinat least one fixing device (40), means (46) for providing a force against the at least one fixing device (40), and a stop device (50) are provided,the at least one fixing device (40) being in contact with open sheets (10) of the stack such that, in a turning-over movement, an open sheet (10) is moved against the force of said force means (46) acting upon the at least one fixing device (40), andthe stop device (50) is arranged such that sheets (10') adjacent the open sheets (10) in the stack are in contact with the stop device (50) and pivoting of these adjacent sheets (10') in the turning-over movement is prevented, at least until the respective projections (12) of these adjacent sheets (10') are in a position of engagement with the support (44).
