  • a magazine 10 ' is arranged horizontally on a frame 9 of the conveyor 13 separate from the frame 9', which accommodates the separating device 11 '.
  • an existing from two horizontally arranged conveyor belts 70 feeder 71 is mounted and connected to fasteners, not shown, with the racks 9, 9'.
  • the feeder 71 may also have other means of transport, such as grapples.
  • a second vertical plane 59 ' which is angled to the center plane 59 of the transport device 1 is formed. Since the separation and feeding of the printed products 4 to the center plane 59 takes place in the second plane 59 ', the second plane 59' can be referred to as the feed plane.
