Patent ID: 7748701

Claim:
Method for feeding out a sheet from an end of a stack of sheets, wherein subjecting the stack of sheets to a displacement motion substantially perpendicular to the extension planes of the sheets toward a driver, which contacts the end sheet of the stack at a distance from a support in the vicinity of a side surface of the front end part of the stack, in relation to the driver, displacing the end sheet, using the driver, in a direction away from the support and toward a separator, conveying the end sheet in the extension plane thereof, before displacing the end sheet away from the support, using the driver to convey the end sheet toward the support, whereby the end sheet experiences an elastic bulging, advancing the stack of sheets toward the driver by means of a pusher, which acts against the rear end of the stack of sheets, so that the abutment force between the driver and the front end sheet of the stack of sheets is detected, and the stack of sheets are pushed so that a predetermined force is attained between the pusher and the end sheet, and so that, the driver is activated for feeding out the front end sheet from the stack, and subjecting the end sheet, during the displacement toward the separator, to at least two consecutive driving cycles by the driver, each of which cycles comprises that an acceleration is imparted to the end sheet, and after that a deceleration occurring before the end sheet reaches the separator.
