Abstract
Reduction of time and labor required for manually disentangling the bundle of cloths to some extent beforehand. A cloths separating device for disentangling a bundle of cloths consisting of a plurality of cloths tangled with one another includes: a cloths pick-up mechanism which holds a part of cloths on a cloths transport conveyor and picks the part of cloths, in a hanging state, obliquely upward; a pair of upper and lower compression conveyors, whose entrance is located so as to face a middle part of the cloths picked up in a hanging state, the clearance between the compression conveyors becoming narrower from the entrance toward an exit; and a cloths push-in mechanism which pushes the middle part of the cloths into the entrance of the compression conveyors.
