Media drawer for a media processing device and media processing device
The application relates to a media drawer for a media processing device with a housing and an electrically-driven lift table arranged in the housing, where the media drawer is movable between a first position, in which the media drawer is arranged in the media processing device in such a manner that media can be removed from the media drawer by the media processing device, and a second position, in which media can be inserted into the media drawer, where the lift table can be supplied with power in the first position by the power supply of the media processing device. Further, the media drawer can exhibit a power supply that is independent of the power supply of the media processing device, via which the lift table can be provided with power in the second position.
Sheet storage cassette as well as sheet feeder and image forming apparatus provided with the same
A sheet storage cassette includes a cassette base and inner rails. The cassette base has side plates facing each other parallel to insertion/withdrawal directions of the sheet storage cassette. The inner rails each have positioning bosses that protrude from each of different positions on the inner rails in a longitudinal direction thereof and a hook portion that protrudes in an L-shape in cross section toward the cassette base and is formed between the positioning bosses. On the side plates of the cassette base, there are provided mounting holes that receive the positioning bosses fitted thereinto at the time of mounting the cassette base to the inner rails, positioning surfaces that comes into contact with two locations on each of the inner rails in a longitudinal direction thereof, and fitted portions that are fitted together with the hook portion in a direction orthogonal to the insertion/withdrawal directions.
PRINTER
A printer includes a first cam that is configured to change a distance between a pair of rollers, i.e. a drive roller and a pinch roller, wherein the pair of rollers are disposed opposite to each other with a paper therebetween and at least one of the rollers is configured to feed the paper along a transfer path by its rotation, a second cam that is configured to change a distance between a head for printing on the paper and a platen roller, wherein the head and the platen roller are disposed opposite to each other with the paper therebetween, and a third cam that is configured to switch the transfer path for the paper to a discharging transfer path or a decurl transfer path that are formed as different transfer paths. The first cam, the second cam, and the third cam are connected to a same rotation axis.
MEDIUM SUPPORTING STRUCTURE AND RECORDING DEVICE
A feeding tray includes a first member supported, via a housing member, by a main body of a recording device configured to perform recording onto a medium, and a second member that includes a second support surface configured to support the medium and is coupled to the first member to be movable relatively to the first member, with a transport direction of the medium being a movement direction. The second member includes a second frame body forming an outer peripheral portion of the second member, and a plurality of second ribs spanning across the second frame body to form the second support surface.
One hand fishing reel systems and methods for manufacturing thereof
A one hand spinning reel system includes a fixed spool and a bail coupled to a trigger switch for opening and optionally closing the bail, and a solid spindle coupled to a motor that is controlled by a motor switch. When the one hand spinning reel system is affixed to a fishing rod, the trigger switch and the motor switch can be operated, and the fishing line can be controlled, using the same hand used to hold the fishing rod and to cast the fishing line.
Sheet storage apparatus and sheet storage method
A sheet storage apparatus (for example, a banknote storage mechanism) includes an entering unit (for example, a pushing unit) configured to enter into a storage bag (for example, a banknote storage bag) supported by a supporter (for example, holding members) and a controller configured to control the driving unit (for example, a motor) for driving the entering unit. The controller controls the driving unit such that the entering unit enters into the storage bag supported by the supporter and comes in contact with the sheet stored in the storage bag to detect an upper end position of the sheet stored in the storage bag.
MEDIUM DISCHARGING APPARATUS AND IMAGE READING APPARATUS
A scanner including a medium discharging apparatus includes a discharge tray including a first tray configured to receive a front end of a medium discharged by a discharge roller pair and allow placement of the medium therein, and a second tray that is located downstream of the first tray in a medium discharge direction and configured to allow placement of the medium therein, the discharge tray being configured to switch between a first posture in which the first tray and the second tray form a first angle 1, and a second posture in which the first tray and the second tray form a second angle 2 smaller than the first angle 1, without changing the posture of the first tray with respect to the discharge roller pair.
APPARATUS FOR PROCESSING FLAT OBJECTS
The apparatus for processing flat objects includes a transport system with several rotatably mounted conveyor rollers, the flat objects transportable in the direction of transport, and at least one releasably mounted tool module releasably coupled to only one drive shaft or to a lower and an upper rotatably mounted drive shaft; is supported displaceable along the only one drive shaft or the lower and the upper drive shaft; and is equipped with tool parts for processing the flat objects, of which at least one is drivable by the lower or the upper drive shaft. The tool module is supported by a tool carrier which is displaceable by means of a rotatably mounted setting shaft in parallel to the only one drive shaft and to the lower and the upper drive shafts, and which tool carrier has at least one holding element which serves for releasably holding the tool module.
Cart chasis
A cart chassis is described which includes: multiple areas inside the chassis to accommodate either of two different types of modular accessory trays in multiple configurations. An upper platform of the chassis is to support a print engine.
Sheet Accumulation Equipment
An equipment of accumulation of sheets forms a stack of sheets on an accumulation plane by means of driving belts and diverters arranged along the path of the sheets and jump on the accumulation plane. The height of the jump is modified by shifting vertically the accumulation plane with respect to the diverters according to number and/or thickness of the sheets. The diverters can be shifted according to the length of the sheets to be accumulated, while a series of arrest lugs delimits at the rear the area of collection of the sheets and a forwarding mechanism with a pair of output rollers forwards the stack of accumulated sheets when the lugs are released.
