Abstract:
Apparatus for automatically unstacking a pallet on which at least two stacks of blanks are arranged. The apparatus comprises an unstacking station which is configured for receiving a pallet on which are arranged at least two stacks of blanks in collapsed condition. The unstacking station is further configured for taking off one by one individual blanks from the at least two stacks of blanks which are on a pallet received in the unstacking station. The apparatus further includes a feed track for conveying pallets. The feed track links up by a discharge end with the unstacking station for the purpose of feeding a pallet with stacks of blanks to be unstacked to the unstacking station. Further, the apparatus includes a blank main discharge assembly for discharging individual blanks to a further processing station.

Claim (Index 10):
The apparatus according to  claim 8 , wherein each robot is associated with a respective corresponding blank intermediate discharge track, such that the number of blank intermediate discharge tracks corresponds to the number of robots, wherein each blank intermediate discharge track traverses a spiral path over a segment of a circle, wherein a starting point of the spiral path of the blank intermediate discharge track belonging to a robot is in the proximity of the robot that is associated with the respective blank intermediate discharge track, wherein each blank intermediate discharge track has an end point, wherein the end points of the at least two blank intermediate discharge tracks are located above each other, and wherein the spiral paths of the at least two blank discharge tracks are located above each other, wherein an in-feed side of the blank main discharge assembly is near said end points, such that blanks that are at the end points of the blank intermediate discharge tracks are transferable on or into the blank main discharge assembly.
