Abstract:
A glove stacking apparatus forming a stack of folded gloves has a supporting surface for supporting the stack as folded gloves are added to the stack along a stacking axis. First and second flaps are pivotable about first and second pivot axes on opposite first and second sides of a glove stacking area. The supporting surface is relatively movable as folded gloves are added to the stack. A cyclic flap actuation system is configured to drive a folding action of each flap in which the flaps alternately pivot about the corresponding pivot axis so that each flap folds a first portion of a deposited glove overlapping a flap towards a second portion of the glove at the glove stacking area; the folding action alternating as gloves are added to the stack. Each flap in addition to being pivotable is also laterally movable both towards and away from the stacking area.

Claim (Index 6):
A glove stacking apparatus as claimed in  claim 1 , in which each platform has an upper surface and a lower surface, the upper surface being configured to provide said support to said first portion of a deposited glove, said withdrawing action of each flap taking place beneath the lower surface.
