Abstract: A pendulum type folder chute detachably mounted to spindles journalled in the side frame walls and having duplicate crank arrangements on either side thereof, including a crank arm, a link arm, and a drive wheel on either side frame such that the mass and driving force of the crank arrangement is balanced. The drive wheel includes a stroke adjustment feature which includes a circular recess defined in the outer surface of the drive wheel, the center of which is offset from the axis of rotation of the drive wheel, and a circular disc is provided in the circular recess rotatable therewithin and having its geometric center coinciding with the geometric center of the recess. A plurality of holes are in a circular locus in the recess coinciding with the locus of a plurality of holes provided on the disc near the periphery thereof. Bolt means pass through the holes in the disc to engage the holes in the recess to thereby lock the disc in a selected position.

Abstract: In a business forms press and method wherein a wide, continuous web of paper is separated into a plurality of business forms width sections, a web separating unit provides pairs of bars for each web section, arranging the pairs of bars so that the axis of these bars is at an obtuse angle to the longitudinal direction of the press and at an obtuse angle to the path of the webs, arranging the pairs of bars so that their distance between the axis thereof and the angle of the plane through the axis of the respective pair of bars with the plane of the web entering the bars is such to provide lateral displacements of the different web sections from each other.
