Abstract: Within electroaccounting and data processing centers, the sheets of forms processed by the printing machine, in particular by a laser or fast printing machine, are shaped as a continuous strip, which by means of the apparatus in accordance with the invention is assembled into packages wherein the strip is folded, and the packages are automatically shaped, separated from the strip that comes from the printing machine and transferred to successive processing in a continuous manner without interfering with the printing machine operation.

Abstract: An automatic positioning device for sheets or forms to be spliced comprising a casing in which the sheets to be spliced are advanced so that the edges to be spliced are exactly aligned with each other.

Abstract: For paper board boxes, comprising a cover and a casing or container with pullable down side walls which are telescopically coupled, an automatic apparatus is provided for positioning the boxes in a predetermined position, removing the cover, pushing away the contents of the box from the casing having the side wall folded flat or pulled down onto the bottom plane and lastly removing the thus set free and flattened casing.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for the splicing of sheet material, especially for forms made up as packages containing the forms as a continuous accordion folded strip, particularly for the continuous feeding of fast printing machines wherein the bottom form group of each package is placed sideways in respect to the lying plane of the forms within the package, whereby the last form of the in-feeding package is spliced to the first form of another package, the apparatus comprising a splicing plane consisting of two semiplanes whereupon the two sheets or forms to be spliced are placed and retained, upon having spread along the splicing line a length of adhesive tape and having the same sized and trimmed, apparatus being furthermore provided for pressing the edges of the two sheets to be spliced against the adhesive face of the tape, and apparatus for the final trimming of the spliced junction.
