Abstract

Device for individually separating sheets from a stack thereof by means of a band-shaped adhesive carrier extending from a supply roller over guide rollers to a wind-up roller, action of the adhesive carrier being adaptable to characteristics of the sheet surface by selection of various guide-roller profiles, including an adhesive head and a drum mounted on a disk so as to afford both angular displacement as well as rotation of the adhesive head, the disk forming an inner bearing ring of the drum for feeding the sheets, the adhesive head having a side mounting plate, one of the guide rollers projecting in use beyond the side mounting plate of the adhesive head and beyond the drum, at a location of adhesion between the adhesive carrier and a sheet to be individually separated from a stack thereof.
