摘要:
A sheet feeding device for intermittently feeding a sheet member on the basis of a commanded feeding amount included in each of successively generated feeding commands, including an upstream feeding roller and a downstream feeding roller and rotated by respective first and second amounts of rotation corresponding to the commanded feeding amount, an obtaining portion for obtaining an overrun amount of the sheet member immediately after a trailing edge of the sheet member has left the upstream feeding roller, on the basis of a difference obtained by subtracting a first feeding amount which is a product of a first radius and the first amount of rotation of the upstream feeding roller, from a second feeding amount which is a product of a second radius and the second amount of rotation of the downstream feeding roller, an estimating portion for estimating whether the trailing edge leaves the upstream feeding roller during feeding of the sheet member according to the next feeding command, and a subtracting portion for subtracting the obtained overrun amount of the sheet member from the next commanded feeding amount included in the next feeding command, when the estimating portion estimates that the trailing edge leaves the upstream feeding roller.

A recording system includes: a feeding device including a pair of rollers that cooperate with each other to nip a recording medium; a recording device which is configured to record an image on the recording medium; and a control device which is configured to control operations of the feeding device. The control device includes an adjusting portion which is configured to adjust an amount of head poke such that a trailing end of the recording medium is not stopped inside the predetermined range relative to a nip position of the pair of rollers.

A printer for feeding the sheet intermittently with high precision while preventing a decrease in the print rate is provided. A printer has a feed-in roller for feeding a sheet into a printing region, a feed-out roller for feeding the sheet out of the printing region, a motor for rotating the feed-in roller and the feed-out roller, and a controller for controlling the motor. The controller controls the motor so as to start intermittent sheet feed with a first line-feed-time that specifies a time period for one line feed and vary the first line-feed-time to a second line-feed-time that is longer than the first line-feed-time before the sheet is fed by only the feed-out roller. The sheet is fed intermittently with a shorter line-feed-time while being fed by the feed-in roller which is precisely controlled. On the other hand, the sheet is fed intermittently with a longer line-feed-time while being fed by the feed-out roller which is not controlled as precisely as the feed-in roller. Hereby, the printer can feed the sheet intermittently with high precision while preventing a decrease in the print rate.

A conveying device of an image recording apparatus includes a drive roller, a follow roller, an urging member, a bearing member, a pivoting support member, and a driving unit. The urging member applies pressure to the follow roller for pressing the follow roller against the drive roller. The bearing member supports the urging member and rotatably supports the follow roller. The pivoting support member supports the bearing member such that the bearing member is pivotally movable about either one of a rotational axis of the drive roller and another axis different from the rotational axis. The driving unit pivotally moves the pivoting support member and the bearing member between a first position at which the follow roller is located on a conveying path for conveying a recording medium and a second position at which the follow roller is retracted from the conveying path.

An image forming apparatus includes a reading mechanism having an original placement portion, a recording mechanism having a medium supply tray and a reversing mechanism, a casing that houses the recording mechanism, and an operating section through which the image forming apparatus is manipulated. A longitudinal direction of the original placement portion is substantially parallel with a width direction of the casing and the operating section is disposed on a front side of the reading mechanism. A longitudinal direction of the medium supply tray is substantially parallel with a depth direction that is perpendicular to the width direction of the casing. The reversing mechanism is disposed close to a rear end side in the depth direction. A dimension of the recording mechanism in the depth direction is not more than a sum of a depth of the reading mechanism plus a depth of the operating section.

A cap member for covering a plurality of nozzle arrays disposed in a nozzle plate of a liquid ejecting head includes a first lip, at least one second lip, and a main body. The first lip has an annular shape and is configured to abut against the nozzle plate to enclose the plurality of nozzle arrays. At least one second lip has an annular shape, is disposed within the annular first lip, and is configured to abut against the nozzle plate to enclose at least one of the plurality of nozzle arrays separately from the first lip. The first lip and the at least one second lip are disposed on the main body. The main body is configured to cooperate with the first lip and the at least one second lip to make sealing contact with the nozzle plate.

In an image recording apparatus, a feed roller pair including a drive roller and a pinch roller is disposed on an upstream side of a sheet feed direction from an image recording unit. The pinch roller is rotatably supported in a pinch roller holder so as to press in contact with drive roller with a specified pressure. A holder support member is integrally formed with an inside frame constituting a housing of the apparatus. Rolling bearings are interposed between the pinch roller holder and the holder support member. The pinch roller holder is supported in the holder support member so as to roll in a direction where a recording sheet is fed.

An image-forming apparatus includes a printer section which performs image recording, a tray accommodating section which is provided on the upper surface of the printer section, and a tray of which a posture can be changed to a paper-feeding posture which enables loading of a recording paper, and an accommodation posture in which the tray is accommodated in the tray accommodating section. Accordingly, there is provided the image-forming apparatus in which the tray, usable also as a manual feeding tray, can be accommodated compactly when the tray is not to be used.
摘要:
A feeding device including: (a) a feed mechanism including a motor driven with supply of a power thereto, and a feeder operated by the motor for feeding an object; (b) a power supply controller for supplying the power to the motor until an actual operating position of the feeder coincides with a power-supply-stop operating position located before a target operating position of the feeder, and to stop the supply of the power to the motor when the actual operating position coincides with the power-supply-stop operating position, for causing the actual operating position to eventually coincide with the target operating position owing to an inertia of the feed mechanism; and (c) a power-supply-stop operating-position determiner for determining the power-supply-stop operating position, for reducing a positioning error of the object in presence of a torque fluctuation of the feed mechanism, based on the target operating position and a cyclic variation of an operating velocity of the feeder that is caused by the torque fluctuation.

A laser diode module has a laser diode, a lens for condensing the laser beam from the laser diode, an optical fiber for receiving the laser beam from the lens at the end face thereof, and support assembly for supporting the laser diode, the lens, and optical fiber, the support assembly positions the end face of the optical fiber at a deviation position apart from the focal point of the lens by an allowable distance when a temperature of the laser diode module is room temperature and moves the end face of the optical fiber at a close position relatively closer to the focal point than the deviation position when the temperature of the laser diode module rises from the room temperature.
