Abstract: A stacker for document cards having a card-receiving pocket, a rotatable roller yieldably disposed at the top of the pocket by means of a cantilever spring, a pressure shoe disposed at the card entrance side of the pocket, and a resilient card stop at the other side of the pocket. A supporting plate for the cards is disposed in the pocket and is yieldably held from downward movement in the pocket so as to support a stack of cards therein. As the cards enter the pocket, they deflect the cantilever spring while making contact with the roller and cause the roller to rotate so that the roller drives the cards forwardly and snaps the cards off the pressure shoe; and the roller also, due to its rotation, prevents substantial rebound of the cards from the card stop.

Abstract: MACHINE FOR PROCESSING MERCHANDISING TICKETS IN BOTH ROLL AND INDIVIDUAL FORM A machine for processing merchandising tickets each having a magnetizable surface strip and a line for receiving printing. The tickets may be in individual form carried by a hopper or in roll form carried by a supply reel. The machine defines a main path having a magnetic encoding head for encoding information on the magnetic strip of a ticket, a read head for checking the information encoded on the strip and a printer for printing on the print line of a ticket. The machine further defines supply paths connecting the supply reel and hopper with the main path. The machine includes a stacker and a take-up reel and defines paths connecting the main path with both the stacker and the take-up reel. A discard chute and a delivery path for a length of connected tickets are also provided by the machine, and selectively operable swingable deflectors are provided for selectively directing the tickets to this delivery path or to the discard chute. The machine also includes a burster mechanism for separating the tickets in connected form into discrete lengths.
