    摘要: A high capacity, high reliability cassette tray sheet feeding assembly for supporting a high capacity stack of sheets, and for feeding such sheets with a high degree of reliability, one at a time, in a sheet using machine. The high capacity, high reliability cassette tray sheet feeding assembly includes a cassette frame for removing and reinstalling into a sheet supply station of the sheet using machine. The cassette frame has a front end over which sheets are fed into the machine, and a forward feed corner snubber that is mounted to one corner of the front end of the cassette frame for preventing the feeding of multiple sheets at a time. The cassette frame includes a fixed position stationary base plate within the cassette frame for supporting a high capacity stack of sheets having a topmost sheet. The high capacity, high reliability cassette tray sheet feeding assembly further includes a variable position sheet receiving path, and a pivotable feed wheel assembly for reliably feeding topmost sheets seriatim from the fixed position stationary base plate into the variable position sheet path. The pivotable feed wheel assembly has a first position for a full stack of sheets, and a second position for an empty base plate. Importantly, the pivotable feed wheel assembly has a constant sheet feeding angle, and a constant sheet feeding normal force, for enabling continuous high reliability feeding of sheets from the first through to the second position thereof.

    摘要: Media removal apparatus having a stripper finger structure for separating the lead edge of an imaging media such as plain paper from a heated fuser roll and a stripper baffle for separating the portion of the imaging media beyond the lead edge of the imaging media from the heated fuser roll. The stripper finger structure is supported for movement between a home or standby position and an active position, with the finger tips in constant contact with the heated fuser roll, for effecting separation of the media's lead edge from the heated fuser roll. Likewise, the stripper baffle structure is supported for movement between home or standby positions to its active position where it effects separation of a portion of the imaging media beyond its lead edge.

    摘要: An image forming device includes one or more flexible fingers to simulate a narrow gap baffle and provide a baffle-like support for different document media. These flexible fingers help guide the documents from one subsystem to another, for instance, entering into the decurler nip on the host image forming device decurler assembly. These flexible fingers act as two baffles. For heavy weight documents, the flexible fingers deflect and move out of the way. For medium to light weight documents, the flexible fingers control the document position during its trajectory.
