Abstract
A device for conveying and sectioning of separator strip in devices for producing pockets for battery plates with a conveyor means which conveys the separator strip to a device for dividing the separator strip into separator strip sections, and with another conveyor means which feeds the separator strip sections to a means for folding the separator strip sections around battery plates. The conveyor means for the separator strip and the separator strip sections are continuous conveyor belts supplied with negative pressure, which have several rows of holes and which are routed over chambers supplied with negative pressure. The side of the chamber supplied with negative pressure which faces the continuous conveyor belt has slot-like openings which align with the rows of holes in the continuous conveyor belt. The effective length of the slots of the chamber supplied with negative pressure, that is, the chamber of the conveyor means which is located after the means for dividing the separator strip, can be changed.
