  • the book blocks 3 astride the saddle plates 8 then pass vertically through a glue application device, not shown, where a book cover 2 fed laterally to a gripper (not shown) is ground to the glued outer surfaces of a book block 3 or to the attachments of a book block 3.
  • the books just produced 4 reach a delivery station 9, where they are received by a stationary display element 10 and stored on a not-evident delivery belt.
  • the suspension device 5 is preceded by a processing line 20, along which at regular intervals, respectively. Clock processing steps further processing stations with processing devices for processing a book block back 21 are arranged. Viewed in the conveying direction F of the book block 3, a feed station 13 with a feed device 14 for feeding the subsequent processing station is arranged at the beginning of the processing line 20.
  • the feeding of the book block 3 in a clockwise manner takes place in example as in the Fig. 1 and 2 shown by a so-called star rotor 15, which is parallel to the conveying direction F extending axis clock step by step with the winningab suits 16 of the feed station 13 is driven and has six receiving compartments on the circumference for each front section pre-fed book block 3.
  • the star rotor 15 sets the book block 3 respectively with the front section on a guide surface (not shown), where it responds by a finger engaging at the trailing edge of one of the feed station 13.
  • a circulating conveyor chain associated with a feeding device 14 (not visible) is transported further on the processing line 20 in the step of the cycle.
