Abstract
A printing-material conveyor between two printing units of a printing machine. The conveyor has a displaceable section displaceable to one position for enabling access to the first printing unit or displaceable to another position for receiving printing material from the first printing unit. A transport device includes the displaceable section which is followed by a stationary section. An endless conveyor with push members extends over both sections. The displaceable section being swingable. A cover plate swingable along with the displaceable section moves to block access to the displaceable section when the latter is displaced to enable access to the first printing unit.
