Abstract: A deflector of a sheet distributing mechanism is positioned at selected sheet-receivers or stations in response to the passage of sheets past the deflector. A manually programmed crossbar switch determines the preselected numbers of sheets to be distributed to any one of several sheet-receivers. A sheet stepping switch and a station stepping switch join the programmed crossbars of the crossbar switch when the programmed number of sheets have been received at the selected sheet-receiver so as to index the deflector to the next sheet-receiver. The number of sheets and the number of sheet-receivers programmed may be varied, sheet-receivers may be skipped or the device may operate as a collator by distributing a single sheet at a time to one or more of the sheet-receivers. An anticipating device is employed on the station stepping switch to permit smooth operation of the distributing mechanism when several sheet-receivers are to be skipped.

Abstract translation: 纸张分配机构的偏转器响应于纸张通过偏转器而被定位在选定的纸张接收器或台站。 手动编程的交叉开关确定要分配到几个纸张接收器中的任何一个的预选数量的纸张。 当在所选择的纸张接收器处接收到编程的纸张数量以便将偏转器分配到下一个纸张接收器时，纸张步进开关和台阶步进开关连接横杠开关的编程的交叉杆。 纸张的数量和已编程的纸张接收器的数量可以被改变，可以跳过纸张接收器，或者设备可以通过一次将单张纸​​分发到一个或多个纸张接收器来作为整理器来操作。 当要跳过几个接收器时，在台阶步进开关上采用预期装置以允许分配机构的平稳运行。
