Abstract: In a device for conveying stacks of sheets of paper, each stack is caused to advance along a pre-set path inside a pocket, which has a resting surface for supporting the stack and is provided with at least one pressure member designed to grip the stack on the resting surface during at least part of the displacement of the pocket along the path.

Abstract: An apparatus for wrapping reams of paper in which the units for forming the first tube are adjacent to the devices for lateral folding of the first tube in order simultaneously to form lateral flaps.

Abstract: In a device for conveying stacks of sheets of paper or the like, each stack is caused to advance along a pre-set path inside a pocket, which has a resting surface for supporting the stack and is provided with at least one pressure member designed to grip the stack on the resting surface during at least part of the displacement of the pocket along the path.

Abstract: A unit for handling a product defined by at least one ream of sheets has two gripping members; and an actuating assembly for moving the gripping members to and from a gripping position wherein the gripping members engage the product (2) on opposite sides of the product in a given direction.

Abstract: A method and device for conveying reams of paper, whereby a ream is conveyed by at least two conveyors arranged in series and connected to each other at a transfer station; and wherein at least a first of the two conveyors is an endless conveyor having at least one ream pusher and traveling at a first speed to feed a ream to the transfer station, where the ream is accelerated to a second speed greater than the first speed to detach itself from the pusher by a distance at least equal to the length of the pusher before leaving the first conveyor.
