A movable fixture onto which core laminates may be stacked in a manner such that the laminates are secure and easily accessible, and the fixture may be used to transport the laminates. The fixture consists of, among other things, a stacking table that has at least one pivot arm extending therefrom and a base plate that has at least one appendage extending therefrom. The pivot arm is movably and removably attached to the appendage in order to permit the stacking table to move between a transporting position and an assembling position.

What is claimed is: 1. A fixture for handling laminates, comprising: a base plate having at least one appendage extending therefrom; at least one pivot arm extending from the at least one appendage, wherein the pivot arm has a first end and a second end, and the first end is rotatably and removably attached to the appendage to permit the pivot arm to move relative to the base plate; a middle member having a transporting arm removably attached thereto, wherein the transporting arm extends generally perpendicular relative to the middle member and has a plurality of slots formed therein for connecting to a transporting device; a first and a second vertical member disposed generally parallel to the middle member; a first and a second horizontal member disposed generally perpendicular to the middle member; and a support member attached to the middle member, wherein the support member and the pivot arm operate to support the laminates. 2. The fixture of claim 1, wherein the transporting arm is integrally attached to an upper middle member, and the upper middle member slides over part of the middle member and is attached thereto. 3. The fixture of claim 1 wherein the support member comprises a plurality of channel structures attached to the first and the second vertical members and the middle member. 4. The fixture of claim 1 further comprising a support plate disposed where the first and the second vertical members connect to the pivot arm, wherein the support plate ensures a flush surface against which the laminates are stacked. 5. The fixture of claim 1, wherein the support member is movable at least between a transporting position and an assembling position. 6. The fixture of claim 5, wherein the support member is in the assembling position when the pivot arm extends at an angle Φ relative to the base plate. 7. The fixture of claim 6, wherein Φ is approximately 15��. 8. The fixture of claim 5, wherein the second end of the pivot arm is beveled at an angle Φ; and the support member is in the assembling position when the second end of the pivot arm contacts the base plate in a flush manner. 9. The fixture of claim 8, wherein Φ is approximately 15��. 10. The fixture of claim 5, wherein the support member is in the transporting position when the pivot arm extends generally parallel to the base plate. 11. The fixture of claim 5, wherein the support member is detachable from the appendage when the support member is in the transporting position.
