Abstract: Apparatus for feeding veneer to a plywood assembly station is disclosed. The apparatus has three lift tables in line with the assembly station. The back lift table supports a supply of back veneer, the middle lift table supports a supply of face veneer, and the front lift table supports a supply of middle veneer. Two vertically stacked conveyors extend, respectively, from the outer two lift tables to lift tables to transport back veneer and face veneer, respectively, to an upper ready station. A third conveyor, below the other two conveyors, extends from the front lift table to transport middle veneer to a lower ready station. The back and face veneer are released together from the upper ready station to the assembly station, and the middle veneer is released alternately from the lower ready station to the assembly station.

Abstract: A layer of fruit in random arrangement is passed beneath a row of switch-actuating arms. Each switch serves as an input to a two-stage set-reset flip-flop circuit. A detectable pulse is created by the flip-flop circuit arrangement as a fruit leaves its associated switch-actuating arm providing that the adjacent arms are unactuated, and, consequently, only one pulse will be created for each fruit that passes beneath the row of arms as the last arm thereof drops off of it. The pulse outputs from the various flip-flop circuits are all directed to conventional pulse counting means to give a count of the total number of fruit passing beneath the row of arms.
