摘要:
A document processing system includes a document track composed of a pair of opposing rigid track walls. The documents are moved along the document track in a series to allow operations to be performed on the documents. An apparatus for detecting a document with an attachment includes a strike plate formed by a separate section of a wall of the document track. A magnet is arranged to attract material toward the strike plate. An accelerometer is mounted to the strike plate. The accelerometer detects an impact of an attachment to the strike plate when a document with an attachment passes the strike plate.

A system for feeding and transporting documents includes a feeder stage and a transport stage. The feeder stage includes a feeder and a hopper assembly. The hopper floor carries the document stack, and includes a flag providing a force to move the documents along the hopper floor toward the feeder and to feed a document with a presentation force. A vibration source means vibrate the hopper floor such that the hopper floor vibration is stronger at the far end and weaker at the near end to cause a dynamic weight of the document stack to be reduced through vibration, particularly at the hopper floor far end when the document stack is large so as to reduce variation in the presentation force at the feeder.
摘要:
A roller assembly for releasably latching a roller to a drive shaft in which a cylindrical roller body has an internal bore and a one-way clutch through which the drive shaft protrudes into a recess within the cylindrical roller body, the recess retaining a spring that engages the drive shaft, and a cap having a cam fixedly rotates about the cylindrical roller body so that the cam engages and urges the spring outward releasing the drive shaft.
摘要:
In a document processing array, an imaging/illumination arrangement for illuminating and imaging the documents at one or several imaging-sites as they are rapidly transported there-past, each site having, as its illumination source, a hollow Lambertian integrating cylinder housing lamps which project essentially all their light onto the inner cylinder walls to be reflected/diffused thereby in Lambertian fashion and sent to the imaging site(s).
摘要:
An arrangement for illuminating documents in a document-processing system wherein a large number of documents are rapidly and continuously transported past one or more imaging stations, each station having, for illumination, an integrating structure which houses one or more cylindrical, integrating Lambertian reflecting/diffusing cavities, each cavity having one or more like light sources, so that each cavity generates and projects a highly intense, highly uniform and highly diffuse beam of illumination, while incorporating imaging camera means and optical guide means to couple the illumination beam to the face of the documents at the imaging station and to couple the image of the document to the imaging camera.
摘要:
Document-imager for imaging documents (e.g. checks that are transported past an imaging-site, where the site is illuminated by one (or two) pairs of lamps symmetrically disposed about the site, with image-reflection sent back between lamps to be captured.
摘要:
A leak tolerant liquid cooling system for electrical components comprises a cooling circuit which contains a pump and conduits that circulate a liquid coolant past the electrical components and through the bottom chamber of a purge tank. This purge tank also has a top chamber which is connected to the bottom chamber through a passageway; and, the bottom chamber is sized such that the liquid coolant passes through it with a velocity which is low enough to let any air bubbles in the coolant rise and move by buoyancy through the passageway into the top chamber. Air is purged from the top chamber through a valved output port by forcing liquid coolant into the top chamber through a valved input port. To complete this purge quickly, the passageway between the purge tank chambers is configured in a way which hinders the flow of coolant from the top chamber to the bottom chamber while the coolant is being forced into the top chamber. As the air purging occurs, the coolant continues to be pumped past the electrical components through the cooling circuit.
摘要:
A component is disclosed. The component includes a base member having an upper surface and a lower surface and a substantially tubular member attached to and extending away from the upper surface of the base member. The substantially tubular member includes a body formed by an outer surface, an inner surface, an upper lip surface connecting the outer surface to the inner surface and a document landing surface. The body includes a thickness (T) extending between the outer surface and the inner surface. The document landing surface is connected to the inner surface. The inner surface and the document landing surface define a cavity extending through a portion of a length (L) of the body. An assembly is also disclosed.

A stacking adapter is disclosed. The stacking adapter includes a lower surface, an outer upper surface arranged opposite an inner upper surface, an outer peripheral sidewall surface that connects the outer upper surface to the lower surface, and an inner peripheral sidewall surface that connects the inner upper surface to the lower surface. An assembly is also disclosed.

A low-profile document feeding machine includes a feeder, a hopper, at least one processing device, and an output pocket. The feeder feeds documents one at a time from a document stack in the hopper for processing by the at least one processing device and reception by the output pocket. The hopper has a hopper floor including a hopper floor extension that extends beyond a footprint of the low-profile document feeding machine so as to better support longer documents. The hopper floor extension extend a to a sufficient extent such that a total length of the hopper floor is at least about 5.5 inches.
