METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR STACKING ARTICLES IN A SIDE-BY-SIDE RELATION Abstract of the Disclosure An apparatus for stacking a plurality of articles in a side-to-side relation. The articles are conveyed in an upright end-to-end relation on a con- veyor and a bin or article receiving means is position- ed adjacent the downstream end of the conveyor and individually receives each article discharged from the conveyor. The bin includes a bottom wall and a rear wall and the bin is movable between a receiving posi- tion where the bottom wall extends downwardly and out- wardly from the downstream end of the conveyor, to a discharge position where the bottom wall is disposed substantially horizontal. Each article being received within the bin is held in an upright position and is transferred laterally within the bin against a movable support plate, and each succeeding article received in the bin is transferred in a similar manner against the preceding article to form a stack. The bin is then tilted so that the bottom surface is generally horizon- tal and a pusher plate pushes the stack of articles forwardly out of the bin onto a discharge conveyor.
