    摘要: A paper sheet processing apparatus includes a processing tray, a feed member, a drive unit, a detection unit, and a control unit. The processing tray receives and stacks a plurality of paper sheets. The feed member faces the processing tray and includes a paddle that is elastically deformed by being pressed against the paper sheets during rotation. The drive unit rotates the feed member. The detection unit detects a leading end of the paper sheet being fed toward the alignment surface by the paddle. The control unit controls the drive unit based on a detection result during a period from if the detection unit detects the leading end of the paper sheet to if the paddle separates from the paper sheet and controls the rotation of the feed member so that the leading end of the paper sheet scraped by the paddle is aligned with the alignment surface.

    摘要: A cooler for storing and dispensing products is disclosed. The cooler includes a housing having an open access. A first glider and a second glider are disposed on a shelf interior of the housing, with a front end closer to the open access and a back end. The first and second gliders each has a partition and a pushing mechanism. The partition can prevent a user from reaching the products on both the first and second gliders at the same time with a single hand. The pushing mechanism can be adjustable between a locked condition to inhibit a movement of the products from the front end to the back end and a released condition to allow a movement of the products from the front end to the back end.

    摘要: A system for moving a flexible plate, in particular a printing plate or a printing plate precursor, over a support surface in the direction of a treatment station, comprising a support for supporting the plate on a support surface thereof; an articulated operating arm extending substantially parallel to the support surface and comprising a first segment and a second segment; said first segment having a first end which is rotatably connected to said second segment around a first rotation axis substantially perpendicular to the support surface, and a second end provided with a plate engagement means to contact the plate; said second segment being rotatable around a second rotation axis substantially perpendicular to the support surface; a control means to control the rotation of the first and second segment, such that the plate is slid over the support in the direction of the treatment station.

    摘要: According to one embodiment, a sheet conveying device includes a tray and a correcting member. On the tray, a sheet bundle in which a plurality of sheets are overlapped is stacked in a thickness direction of the sheet bundle. The correcting member moves relative to the tray in the thickness direction. The correcting member abuts against an upper layer portion of an outer peripheral portion of the sheet bundle on the tray, and presses the upper layer portion from an outside after abutting. The correcting member corrects a position of the upper layer portion in a lateral direction intersecting the thickness direction toward an inside from the outside of the sheet bundle.

    摘要: To enable highly accurate fold processing by properly moving a sheet that has been subjected to fold processing. In a sheet processing apparatus that that performs fold processing in such a manner as to apply first fold processing to a sheet and then apply second fold processing at a position different from a fold line formed in the first fold processing so as to make one end of the sheet folded in the first fold processing lie inside the folded sheet, the first fold processing is applied to a sheet conveyed to an intermediate tray by a fold roller pair and, when a regulating stopper is moved to move the folded sheet that has been subjected to the first fold processing to a predetermined position of the intermediate tray, the folded sheet is gripped by a grip unit.

    摘要: A post-processing apparatus performs post-processing on a paper sheet conveyed from a previous stage side, and includes: a corrector that performs bend correction on the paper sheet, in accordance with one of a plurality of bend correction methods; a post-processor that performs the post-processing on the paper sheet subjected to the bend correction performed by the corrector; and a hardware processor that selects one of the plurality of bend correction methods, on the basis of a bend correction accuracy corresponding to a product to be created by the post-processing being performed by the post-processor, and a productivity of the product, wherein from the plurality of bend correction methods, the hardware processor selects a bend correction method that reduces a difference between a post-processing time required for the post-processor to perform the post-processing and a correction time required for the corrector to perform the bend correction on the paper sheet.
