Abstract

A device for depositing folded products onto a conveyor belt utilizes a paddle wheel to receive the products from a folder. If the paddle wheel becomes overloaded, a guide device that has sheet metal guide plates is shifted away from the paddle wheel. This shifting is initiated automatically. The movement of the guide device creates a space or pocket for the accumulated folded products.
