Summary:Device for removing a staple (34) from a stapled bundle of sheets (35) by moving the bundle (35) over a supporting element (10) past a staple removing strip (25). The strip (25) extends above the supporting element (10) at a small acute angle therewith and is fixed to an arm (18) which is rotatably mounted on a shaft (17) positioned at the side of the strip (25) facing away from the acute angle and below the supporting element (10). The strip (25) is moved upwards when a stapled bundle of sheets (35), with the legs of the staple (34) facing downwards, is fed between the supporting element (10) and a wedge-like tapering end (27) of the strip (25), which end (27) presses onto the supporting element (10). When in this way the staple (34) is positioned in front of the wedge-like tapering end (27) of the strip (25), the bundle (35) is pulled towards the strip (25), the end (27) of the strip (25) penetrating between the crown of the staple (34) and the bundle (35) and the staple (34) thereafter being pulled out of the bundle (35). The pulled-out staple (34) drops in a receiving tray (6) formed beneath the supporting element (10).
