Abstract: A mailpiece selector device for separating mailpieces one-by-one from a stack of mailpieces and for transporting them downstream, the mailpiece selector device having a first guide followed by a second guide, both of which guides co-operate with a plurality of opposite selector rollers to select the mailpieces one-by-one and to transport them downstream, the first guide being able to pivot about a first pivot axis in opposition to first resilient returner, the second pivot axis being offset upstream relative to the first pivot axis, and the first and second guides having a driver for making it possible, above a predetermined mailpiece thickness range, for the second guide to pivot automatically when the first guide pivots.

Abstract: A box for packaging objects, said box including a first belt made up of four vertical panels and terminated by a return tab, each vertical panel being extended by two opposite side flaps designed so that, once they have been folded over at right angles, they form a bottom and a first top for said box, each of at least two of the side flaps having a cutout on a fold line parallel to its outside edge, which cutout enables a tongue to be detached from said flap, said box further including a second belt made up of four other vertical panels and terminated by another return tab, each vertical panel being extended by a single other side flap designed to form a second top for the box, each of two other side flaps being provided with at least one opening or at least one notch for receiving said tongues.

Abstract: A printing module includes a prism-shaped frame (8), two of its adjacent faces (10A, 10B) each defining a guiding path for a printing substrate (3A, 3B), the forward movement of the printing substrates being effected towards the extremity (11) of the two faces; two printing heads (30A, 30B) each placed on one of the paths; and bars (16A, 16B) for guiding and moving (20A-27A) each printing substrate on its path. Also relates to automatic distributors of printed or pre-printed substrates having printing modules of this type.
