    Abstract: A sheet transfer apparatus for an image reading apparatus includes a sheet supply tray for storing a sheet; a sheet supply device for drawing out the sheet on the sheet supply tray; a transfer device for receiving the sheet from the sheet supply means and placing the sheet at a predetermined position on a platen of an image reading apparatus for reading the image thereon; a discharge device for discharging the sheet on the platen after reading the image thereon; and a discharge tray for receiving the sheet discharged by the discharge device. A switchback device is disposed above the platen for reversing the sheet when necessary, and includes a switchback path for receiving the sheet to reverse the same. The switchback path includes a first opening portion for opening a first area near an inlet side, and a second opening portion for opening a second area away from the inlet side of the switchback path. The switchback path is easily accessible when the sheet is jammed.

    Abstract: A card processing apparatus allows for a more compact apparatus that does not cause a reduction in card transporting and printing processing capacity, but improves the freedom of design as an apparatus by establishing a plurality of processing units such as a printer and coating unit in a rational manner. This is attained by a card processing apparatus having a first transport path extended from a card supply unit, a turning unit on said first transport path, a first processing unit to perform the determined process on a card on said first transport path, a second transport path established obliquely to the card transport direction transported through said first transport path based on said turning unit having an angle of 90null or more and less than 180null with regard to the transport path extending from said first processing unit on said first transport path up to said turning unit, a second processing unit to perform the determined process on said card on said second transport path, and a card discharge unit provided at the end of either said first or said second transport paths.

    Abstract: The scanner apparatus has a feed device for picking up checks from an input receptacle and transferring them to a conveyor mechanism which conveys the checks through the interior of the apparatus. A feed plate resiliently urges a bundle of checks in the receptacle towards an opposed surface. A feed roller acting on the side remote from the plate picks up from the receptacle a check disposed adjacent the surface and transfers it towards the interior of the apparatus. The movement of the feed plate towards the opposed surface is stopped in a position close to that surface so as to define between the plate and the surface in a gap of sufficient width for the insertion of at least one check in the input receptacle.

    Abstract: A banknote moving system including a banknote storing unit that can be removably positioned within a banknote receiving unit. The banknote storing unit has a storing section and receives a banknote from the banknote receiving unit. The mover unit can move between a standby position and a moved position to move the received banknote into the storing section of the storing unit. The mover driving unit operates the mover unit in a reciprocating manner between the standby position and the moved position. The rotating driving unit selectively operates the mover driving unit by applying a rotating force in either a clockwise or a counter clockwise direction. The standby position detecting unit produces a standby condition signal when the mover is in a standby condition, and the moved position detecting unit produces a moved position condition signal when the mover unit is in a moved position condition. Finally, the controlling unit receives the standby condition signal and the moved position condition signal and produces a driving direction command signal for selectively operating the rotating driving unit in either the clockwise direction or the counter clockwise direction.

    Abstract: An apparatus and method for forming batches in predetermined count or length of laminar articles standing on edge for transfer from multiple supply lines/chutes to a common delivery line is disclosed. The common delivery line is located operatively below the supply lines/chutes. The axis of movement of the common delivery line is perpendicular to the axes of movement of the supply lines/chutes. The apparatus includes a horizontal platform on which the laminar articles, such as biscuits are led from the supply lines/chutes, pusher bars operating simultaneously for each of the arrays of laminar articles emanating from the supply lines/chutes on to the platform. The batch of articles displaced from the arrays are pushed towards striker plates adjacent to hatches in the platform. The batch of laminar articles strike the striker plate, align themselves and rebound from the striker plate without deformation and drop through the hatches in the platform to pockets in the common delivery line below.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a sheet feeder for a printer. The sheet feeding device feeds a single sheet into an infeeder of a printer without communicating with the printer. The sheet feeder is equipped with a sensor for detecting when the printer is able to accept a sheet. The sheet feeder is equipped with a programmable timing device that causes the sheet feeder to wait a predetermined amount of time before inserting another sheet into the printer. The predetermined amount of time corresponds to the amount of time needed for the printer to complete printing on a sheet after the sensor has detected that the printer is able to accept a sheet into the infeeder of the printer. The sheet feeder is configured with a gate having an adjustable gap in close proximity to a tray containing a stack of sheets. The gate permits only a single sheet to be fed into the infeeder of the printer at a time. The gate has a guide post having a radius of curvature curving toward the gap to urge the stack of sheets toward the gap in the gate. The sheet feeder has an adjustable tray designed to compensate for non-uniform profiles of a stack of sheets. The adjustable tray urges the stack of sheets into the gap in an upward motion to prevent jamming of the sheets in the sheet feeding device.

    Abstract: The invention provides for an improved signature hopper loader for feeding signatures to a hopper on a binding line. The hopper loader includes two conveyor assemblies that work together to feed signatures to the hopper. The first conveyor assembly is connected to the second conveyor assembly such that there is an angle in the range of 110-120 degrees between the first and second conveyor assemblies. The first and second conveyor assemblies also include forming guides that serve to fan, or deblock, the signatures that are traveling along the first or second conveyor assembly. As the signatures travel over the forming guides, they are bent to give the signatures rigidity and to further facilitate deblocking. The hopper loader further includes an opposing belt that is held on top of at least a portion of one of the transporting belts. The opposing belt is hinged to the frame of the hopper loader and preferably swings down on top of the center belt in the second conveyor. The hopper loader includes a pocket that is connected to the end of the second conveyor assembly. The pocket includes a feed rack that is substantially perpendicular to the end of the second conveyor such that the individual signatures are perpendicular to the feed rack as they leave the end of the second conveyor and enter the pocket. The pocket on the hopper loader of the present invention may also be positioned such that there is a nulldropnull between the end of the second conveyor and the feed rack.
