    摘要： The disclosure relates to a scale for fast determination of weights including a platform (18) and a load cell transducer (705). Output of the transducer is converted (74) to a digital signal, processed by a low pass digital filter (76), and weights computed as a function of the sequence of digital signals by means of an algorithm which compares a first estimate of the weight to the break points of a postal rate chart and uses the first estimate if it is not within a predetermined distance of a break point, and otherwise determines a second, more accurate estimate. The platform (18) and transducers (705) are combined to form a structure which does not have any significant resonances below the cut-off frequency of the filter.

    摘要： A mailing machine (10) comprises a device (200) for feeding an envelope (20) having a width in a path of travel; a device (500) for determining the width of the envelope; and a control device (300) in operative communication with the determining device (500) for using the width of the envelope to ascertain a proper amount of postage to be applied to the envelope (20). According to a first embodiment, the determining device includes a sensor array (520) located transverse to the path of travel for detecting the presence of the envelope where the sensor array (520) includes an inner plurality of sensors and an outer plurality of sensors located further away from a registration wall than the inner plurality of sensors. According to a second embodiment, the determining device (500) includes a first sensor for detecting a lead edge of the envelope and a sensor line located downstream in the path of travel from the first sensor and at an angle to the path of travel so as to detect a lead corner of the envelope.

    摘要： A scale has a deck (52) connected to a scale base (12) for weighing an object (MP) placed on the deck. The deck has slots (54,56,58) for accommodating variable thickness belts (30,32,34) which are arranged below the deck and are in substantial registration with the slots. The belts (30,32,34) are positioned with respect to the slots such that, in a home position, thinner sections of the belts do not protrude through the slots whereby the belts do not interfere with weighing of the object (MP) on the deck. When the belts (30,32,34) are actuated, the belts move so that thicker sections (50) of the belts protrude through the slots as the belts are being driven thereby to lift the object from the deck and onto the thicker sections of the belts to transport the object (MP) on the belts. In a particular embodiment, each thicker section (50) comprises lugs which include initial tapered transition lugs (64) to assure smooth lifting of the object.

    摘要： An apparatus and method for transporting a mailpiece. The apparatus comprises an assembly (200, 400, 410) for feeding the mailpieces (20) in a path (A) of travel; a sensor assembly (330, 500) for determining the length of the mailpieces; and a controller (310) in operative communication with the sensor assembly (330, 500) and the feeding assembly (200, 400, 410), the controller for adjusting the gap between a first mailpiece having a measured length and a second mailpiece to: (i) establish a fixed pitch between the first mailpiece and the second mailpiece if the measure length is equal to or less than a predetermined value, or (ii) establish a fixed gap between the first mailpiece and the second mailpiece if the measure length is greater than the predetermined value. The method comprises the steps of feeding the mailpieces (20) in a path (A) of travel; determining the length of the mailpieces; and adjusting the gap between a first mailpiece having a determined length and a second mailpiece to establish a fixed pitch between the first mailpiece and the second mailpiece if the determined length is equal to or less than a predetermined value.
