Abstract:
There is provided a device detecting curling of a sheet, the device including a first guide member carrying the sheet; a second guide member including a carriage path that is broader than the carriage path of the first guide member and accepting the curling of the sheet; and sensors with detection ranges into which a portion of the curling of the sheet enters, in the carriage path of the second guide member.
Abstract:
A sheet stack apparatus comprises a storage portion configured to support sheets conveyed one by one in a standing position, a receiving portion configured to receive lower ends of the sheets supported by the storage portion, an assisting member configured to move from a first position to the storage portion side and at a second position where the assisting member contacts with the sheets conveyed to the storage portion, assist stacking of the sheets on the storage portion, and a holding member configured to move in correspondence with a movement of the assisting member via an attaching portion, when the assisting member is at the second position, separate from the lower ends of the sheets, and when the assisting member is at the first position where the assisting member is separated from the sheets supported by the storage portion, contact with the lower ends of the sheets, thereby hold them on the storage portion side.
Abstract:
A sheet folding apparatus includes a sheet supporting member which has an inclined surface to support a stack of sheets, a sheet position adjuster which adjusts a position of the stack of sheets along the inclined surface, a sheet pressing unit which presses the stack of sheets from a lower side of the stack of sheets to an upper side of the stack of sheet, and a folding unit which folds the stack of sheets pressed by the sheet pressing unit.
Abstract:
According to one embodiment, a decolorizing device includes a first stacker to stack sheets to be decolorized images on the sheets, a second stacker arranged adjacent to the first stacker, wherein the sheets stacked on the first stacker is kept waiting on the second stacker in order to be decolorized the images, a pressing unit to urge the sheets stacked on the second stacker downward and keep the sheets stacked on the second stacker flat, an image decolorizing unit to decolorize the images on the sheets, and a sheet feed unit positioned on an upper surface of the pressing unit to convey the sheets pressed on the pressing unit from the second stacker to the image decolorizing unit.
Abstract:
A sheet finisher of the invention includes a saddle stitch unit configured to stitch a center of a sheet bundle in which printed sheets are bundled, a fold unit configured to fold the center stitched by the saddle stitch unit and to form a fold line, and a fold reinforcing unit configured to reinforce the fold line formed by the fold unit, the fold reinforcing unit includes a roller unit that includes a reinforce roller with a structure for preventing an occurrence of a wrinkle, and moves along a direction of the fold line while applying pressure by the reinforce roller to the fold line of the sheet bundle transported from the fold unit, and a drive unit configured to move the roller unit along the direction of the fold line from a standby position located at a position separate from an end of the sheet bundle.
Abstract:
According to the invention, a sheet finisher has a folding mechanism, a discharging mechanism, a stacking mechanism, and a slip amount calculator. The folding mechanism forms a folding line by folding a sheet which an image forming unit discharges. The discharging mechanism discharges the sheet including the folding line which the folding mechanism forms. The stacking mechanism stacks the sheet which the discharging mechanism discharges. The slip amount calculator outputs a fullness state of the stacking mechanism to the image forming unit, if a slip amount of the discharging mechanism exceeds a threshold.
Abstract:
An image erasing apparatus includes a stacking tray stacking the recording medium, a heater heating the recording medium to a temperature equal to or higher than the temperature at which developer on the recording medium is erased, a detector disposed downstream in a recording medium carrying direction from the heater to detect an image on the recording medium, a recording medium carrying mechanism picking up the recording medium, from the stacking tray sheet by sheet and carrying the picked-up recording medium, a storage box storing the image-erased recording medium by size, a lateral aligning mechanism disposed in the storage box so as to align the recording medium in the lateral direction, and a controller controlling the alignment operation of the lateral aligning mechanism.
Abstract:
The display control device is used in a computer including a window management function (27) and a plurality of moving picture reproducing applications (28a, 28b, 28c). The display control device includes: a detecting unit (21) which detects a pressing down of a one-shot media button (34) arranged in a remote controller (18a); an extracting unit (22) which receives a report on the detection of the pressing down of the one-shot media button (34) by the detecting unit (21) and extracts a dynamic image window associated with any one of moving picture reproducing applications (28a, 28b, 28c) according to the information acquired by the window management function (27); and a changing unit (24) which changes the front-back order of the window so that the dynamic image window extracted by the extracting unit (22) is displayed on the frontmost surface on a display (16).
Abstract:
A duplex printer, in which when a first thermal head prints information on a front side as an information printing side of a printing medium, a second thermal head repeatedly prints a previously registered and selected fixed pattern or notice information on a back side as an information non-printing side of a printing medium at regular cycle or at an optional timing.
