APPARATUS FOR VERTICALLY STACKING AND STORING ARTICLES Abstract of the Disclosure An apparatus for vertically stacking and storing articles. The apparatus includes, in series, a stacking station, at least one storage storage, and an unloading station. A discharge conveyor is disposed beneath the stations. A stacking carriage is mounted for vertical movement in the stacking station, and with the carriage in an upper position, each article is individually fed onto the carriage and supported by a pair of supports that are movable between an inner supporting position and a release position. After each article is fed to the stacking carriage, the carriage is lowered in increments until the desired number of superimposed articles are applied to the carriage to form a stack. The carriage is then lowered to deposit the stack on the discharge conveyor, and the stack can then be conveyed through the storage stations directly to the unloading station, if there is no preceding stack at the unloading station, or alternately, the stack can be held in the storage stations until the unloading station is clear.
