A medium ejecting apparatus includes medium ejecting apparatus includes an ejection roller to eject a medium, a tray to load the medium ejected by the ejection roller, a medium regulating member provided with a load pressing portion on a front-end side thereof to apply a load to the medium ejected on the tray, and provided with an engaging portion on a base portion side opposite to the front-end portion, and a holding member provided with an engaged portion to engage with the engaging portion, to hold the medium regulating member in such a way that the medium regulating member can swing in a vertical direction with respect to an upper surface of the tray, and pivot along a rotation axis in a direction from the base side toward the front-end portion side, according to the ejection of the medium.

A printing apparatus includes a tray on which a sheet is to be stacked, a container configured to store the tray such that the tray can be pulled out, a first guide unit configured to guide a slide of the tray in a pull-out direction, a second guide unit spaced apart from the first guide unit in a widthwise direction, a first regulating portion provided in the container and configured to regulate, by abutting against the tray, a tilt of the tray to one direction in the widthwise direction; and a second regulating portion provided in the container and configured to regulate, by abutting against the tray, a tilt of the tray to the other direction in the widthwise direction.

A sheet discharge device includes: a sheet discharge portion; a sheet stacking portion having a sheet stacking surface for stacking a sheet discharged from the sheet discharge portion; and a stopper in the sheet stacking portion against which, for alignment, the leading end of the sheet discharged from the sheet discharge portion is thrust. The stopper has a support portion, a restricting portion, and an urging mechanism. The restricting portion is supported pivotally on a pivot shaft on the support portion, and is arranged either in a retracted position to lie flat substantially horizontally along the sheet stacking surface or in a restricting position to stand upright substantially vertically to the sheet stacking surface. The urging mechanism urges the restricting portion, when in retracted position, in a direction from restricting position to retracted position and, when in restricting position, in a direction from retracted position to restricting position.

The present invention relates to a transfer module (26) for a folder-gluer machine (1), the transfer module comprising a lower conveyor (36) and an upper conveyor (38) adapted to receive a folding box (2) therebetween and to transport the folding box in a direction of transportation (D) towards a downstream-located loading surface (90) in a stacker module. The upper conveyor (36) of the transfer module extends further in the direction of transportation than the lower conveyor (38) and the lower conveyor comprises a first conveyor belt (38a) and second conveyor belt (38b), each having an inlet end (67a, 67b) and an outlet end (65a, 65b), and wherein the outlet ends are displaceable in the direction of transportation.

A sheet processing device includes a stacking member configured to stack a sheet, a discharging member configured to discharge the sheet stacked on the stacking member, a discharging tray on which the sheet discharged by the discharging member is stacked, a pushing-out member configured to push out the sheet from the stacking member toward the discharging member by being moved in a pushing-out direction, and a controller configured to select, on the basis of information of the sheet stacked on the stacking member, whether to move the pushing-out member to which position of a first position and a second position positioned on a side downstream of the first position with respect to the pushing-out direction.

A medium conveying apparatus includes a medium tray, a pair of side guides to regulate a width direction of a medium, and a housing on which the medium tray is located and including a conveyance path capable of conveying the medium placed on the medium tray. The pair of side guides are located on the medium tray so that outer ends of the pair of side guides can be positioned from an inside of the medium tray to an outside of a maximum width of the medium tray. The conveyance path can convey a medium having a width of an inside of the pair of side guides even when the outer ends of the pair of side guides are positioned outside the maximum width of the medium tray.
