DEFINITION
Classification: 271/213
(under subclass 207) Device provided with a platform or backing for holding a stack of sheets, which backing extends in the length and width dimension of a sheet and is contiguous with the sheet adjacent thereto, and which backing is capable of being moved, thereby moving or permitting movement of, the stack held thereby.
(1) Note. This subclass provides for a movable support including, for example, an endless conveyor, on which
conveyor a plurality of sheets is delivered to form a stack, which conveyor is subsequently actuated to move the formed stack. Temporary removal of one or more walls that serve to confine the sheets during formation of the stack will not bar a patent from original placement in this subclass. However, further provision of structure other than the above-mentioned conveyor, which other structure moves, or helps to move, the stack as a stack will justify placement of a patent reciting such other structure in class (198).
