摘要:
A mailboxing system for feeding sheets from an output device into a mailbox bin (11) selected from a plurality of mailbox bins (11), the system including control means (100) for controlling sheet feeding means to feed the sheets from the output device into the selected mailbox bin. Locking means (50,54) are provided which are operable by the control means (100) for restricting access to sheets stacked in the selected mailbox bin and release means are provided to release operably the locking means (50,54) for providing access to the stacked sheets in the selected bin.
摘要:
In a finishing apparatus (100), such as would be used with a copier or high-speed printer (99), an applicator (30) places stickers (ST) on a folded sheet or booklet, to prevent the sheet or booklet (S) from unfolding or opening. At one point in the operation, the folded sheet or booklet (S) is "backed up" in its basic process direction to receive a sticker (ST) on its trailing edge, and backed up further so that the sticker (ST) is folded over the trailing edge by a pair of crease rolls (10,12).
摘要:
A sheet inverting and stacking system in which a rotatable sheet stacking unit (52) receives the lead edge area of an incoming sheet (11) and then rotates and releases that lead edge area of the sheet at a lead edge registration position for stacking the sheet inverted in a set of stacked sheets at least partially on a stacking tray (32) in a stacking area; with a movable sheet registration system (16) providing plural sheet lead edge registration positions (12, 14); a sheet set fastening system (20) (stapler) for fastening the stacked sets; a first registration position (12) for set fastening in which the sheet stacking area extends into the sheet set fastening system and a second registration position (14) in which the sheet stacking is in front of the sheet fastening system, to provide two different initial sheet leading edge stacking positions and one final stacking position. The rotatable sheet stacking unit (52) is interdigitating with the movable registration system to carry the sheet lead edge directly into the first or second registration positions and also into the sheet fastening system in the first registration position. The stapler (20) is under and at least partially inside of the rotatable sheet stacking unit, and the rotatable sheet stacking unit slots (54) carry the lead edge area of the incoming sheet directly up to the first registration position and into the stapler before releasing it. The sheet lead edge retaining slots have low force retaining spring members (50) which lightly hold the lead edge of the sheet against one side of the slot. A bail system (60) is actuated in coordination with rotation of the rotatable sheet stacking unit (52) to operate a tamper arm (62) which moves downwardly the lead edge area of a sheet (11) being released at the registration position.
摘要:
A copying/printing machine is adapted for rolling up copies of large size documents such as engineering drawings and the like and for automatically applying tape to the rolled-up copy sheets so as to maintain a tubular form. An output copy from the machine is fed by feed rollers (72, 74) to a cylindrical space (94) formed by a combination of curved baffles (92, 88). The copy sheet is fed around the inside of the baffles by rollers (104, 102, 100) which propel the sheet into a spiral path and form it into a roll. The apparatus includes a tape dispenser (130) which is activated in timed relation with the completion of the sheet rolling process to apply a tape segment so as to overlap the trailing edge of the rolled-up sheet and an underlying portion of the roll.
