First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for conveying a succession of objects in a longitudinal direction, comprising conveying the objects in the longitudinal direction;
- pivoting each object while conveying the object at a first longitudinal displacement speed (V1) during the pivoting and in a pivoting zone;
conveying each object at a second longitudinal displacement speed (V2) in a second zone adjacent to the pivoting zone, wherein the second speed is different from the first speed.

Abstract
In a method for conveying a succession of flat objects in a longitudinal direction, each object is pivoted while being conveyed at a first longitudinal displacement speed (V1) during the pivoting phase in a pivoting zone. Each flat object is conveyed at a second longitudinal displacement speed (V2) in a second zone adjacent to the pivoting zone, the second speed being different from the first speed. This sets spacing between objects in the zones before and after the pivoting zone.

7. A device for processing and conveying of objects, the device comprising:
-
at least one pivoting zone for the objects, a first conveying device configured and operable for conveying the objects at a first longitudinal displacement speed (V1) in which the objects are conveyed by the first conveying device at the first longitudinal displacement speed (V1); a second zone adjacent to the first pivoting zone; a second conveying device for the objects, the second conveying device being configured to convey the objects through the second zone by the second conveying device at a second longitudinal displacement speed (V2) which is different from the first longitudinal displacement speed (V1). - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
