Abstract: An apparatus for supplying stacked, thin, flat articles comprising a reversing means which reverses the direction toward which the articles face by rotating the articles about one of their side edges and a clearance making means which provides a plurality of clearance spaces between several pairs of article side edges while the articles are being reversed. The actuating position of the clearance making means is movably adjustable relative to the reversing means.

Abstract: An apparatus for supplying thin, flat articles has a reversing means for reversing the articles. The reversing means includes a bottom surface supporting part and an edge supporting part which is perpendicular to the bottom surface supporting part. The apparatus also has a conveyer means by which the reversed articles are received and fed. The edge supporting part has at least one fixed member which is fixed to the bottom surface supporting part and at least one sliding member which is slidably associated with the fixed member so that the length of the edge supporting part can be changed.
