Abstract

The device (1) has a conveyor belt (4), where a sheet (2) is conveyed in the conveyor belt against a catch (5). A roller (6) presses the sheet against the conveyor belt and is adjustable on a rear edge of the sheet, when a front edge of the sheet lies against the catch. The roller is provided with a return stop that prevents reversion of rotation of the roller, and is supported in a device frame by a rotatable rocker (12) in a rotatable manner.
