Vorrichtung zur Handhabung von aus Bogen gebildeten Stapeln

A device for manipulating stacks formed of sheets for a rotary printing press by which the sheets are processable in a processing direction in a so-called nonstop operation, the device including an auxiliary stack support having a cantilevered end and being disposed in an operating position thereof so as to catch the sheets from below, and a carrier carrying the auxiliary stack support so that it is displaceable in and counter to the processing direction, includes a bearing carried by the carrier for supporting at an operating level the cantilevered end of the auxiliary stack support disposed in the operating position thereof, the bearing being adjustable between a functional position into which it has been lowered below the operating level and a functional position wherein it supports the cantilevered end at the operating level.
