Abstract: An apparatus for delivering package inserts or the like to folding boxes in a packaging machine has a brochure device secured to a support via an adapter plate, and the support is in turn supported horizontally pivotably in a bearing block. The embodiment according to the invention makes it possible to gain access to devices located inside the apparatus in an ergonomically favorable way, in particular for maintenance work, without having to dismantle parts of the apparatus.

Abstract: A cardboard box making maching has a product conveyor system, a brochure device, and a conveyor chain for taking over package inserts from the brochure device. The conveyor chain is capable of going around curves, so that the conveyor chain is guided laterally out of the plane of the product conveyor system directly to a transfer point disposed above and obliquely to the product conveyor system. The carboard box making machine, because of the conveyor chain, has fewer transfer points for the package inserts and therefore functions especially operationally reliably at relatively little effort and expense for equipment.

Abstract: A transfer device for package inserts is disposed between a brochure device and a brochure conveyor system has two pairs of two conveyor belts each. To enable ejection of defective package inserts two of the conveyor belts are disposed pivotably by means of a lever, in order to form an alternative conveyor path that transfers the defective package inserts into a discard bin. The transfer device of the invention makes early ejection of defective package inserts from a cardboard box-making machine possible.
