Abstract: An apparatus for separating piled iron sheets one by one has a plurality of magnets arranged vertically with the same magnetic poles thereof facing each other. Magnetic fluxes generated from the magnets react with each other at a position between the magnets and flow horizontally and then vertically, with the result that opposite, vertically separating forces act on two superposed iron sheets.
