A sheet laminator includes a fuser pressure member, a heater, a drive device, and circuitry. The fuser pressure member thermally fixes a two-ply sheet and a sheet medium inserted between two sheets of the two-ply sheet. The heater heats the fuser pressure member. The driver rotates the fuser pressure member. In response to a pause of a rotation of the fuser pressure member, the circuitry turns off a power supply to the heater, and perform one of immediately stopping the fuser pressure member or rotating the fuser pressure member and stopping the fuser pressure member after the rotation of the fuser pressure member, based on a state of the fuser pressure member.

A manual cold laminating machine includes a machine housing body, an upper housing assembly, a film roller assembly, a pressure roller assembly including a fixed pressure roller and a movable pressure roller, a transmission assembly, and a control handle. The transmission assembly automatically converts opening and closing motions of the upper housing assembly into displacement of the movable pressure roller via a transmission plate. The transmission plate is provided with an upper cover connecting groove having a locking groove portion and a curved groove portion for engaging with the upper housing assembly, and connects to the movable pressure roller via a pressure roller mounting groove; an elastic member provides preload force to ensure transmission stability. The film roller assembly employs sliding rail mounting for quick installation and removal, the upper housing assembly is provided with a press-type unlocking mechanism for default locked protection, and the foldable handle saves space.

A sheet laminator includes a thermal fixing roller pair, a first heater, a second heater, multiple temperature detectors, and a driver. The thermal fixing roller pair includes a first thermal fixing roller and a second thermal fixing roller facing the first thermal fixing roller. The thermal fixing roller pair thermally fixes and conveys a two-ply sheet and a sheet medium nipped between two sheets of the two-ply sheet. The first heater heats the first thermal fixing roller. The second heater heats the second thermal fixing roller. The multiple temperature detectors are at different positions along an axial direction of the thermal fixing roller pair. The multiple temperature detectors detect a surface temperature of the thermal fixing roller pair. The driver drives the thermal fixing roller pair.

A sheet processing device includes a rotator, a first nipper, a conveyor, a second nipper, a detector, a memory, and circuitry. The rotator winds a two-ply sheet around the rotator to generate a winding circumferential difference between two sheets of the two-ply sheet to separate the two sheets. The detector detects an abnormal condition, in which a gap greater than a given interval is not formed between the two sheets around the rotator. The memory stores a detection result as the abnormal condition. The circuitry is to increase a nipping force of the second nipper with the rotator, and increase the nipping force in a present sheet processing to be greater than a previous nipping force of the second nipper in a previous sheet processing, when the memory stores the detection of the abnormal condition in the previous sheet processing, to wind the two sheets around the rotator.

A lamination processing system includes a sheet separation device, a lamination fixing device, and a conveyor. The sheet separation device separates a two-ply sheet to insert a sheet medium between two sheets of the two-ply sheet to form an enclosed two-ply sheet. The lamination fixing device includes an inlet port and a heater. The conveyor conveys the enclosed two-ply sheet from the sheet separation device to the lamination fixing device in a conveyance direction. The conveyor includes a conveyance passage and a guide. The conveyance passage guides the enclosed two-ply sheet from the sheet separation device toward the lamination fixing device. The guide guides the enclosed two-ply sheet to the inlet port. The guide forms a space accommodatable a deflected part of the enclosed two-ply sheet formed by a difference in a conveyance speed of the enclosed two-ply sheet between the sheet separation device and the lamination fixing device.

A laminating system sandwiches a sheet medium in a two-ply sheet in which two sheets are overlapped and partially joined together and applies heat and pressure to bond the two-ply sheet. The laminating system includes a sheet separating device, a laminate-fixing device, and a conveyor. The sheet separating device separates the two sheets of the two-ply sheet and sandwiches the sheet medium between the two sheets. The laminate-fixing device heats and presses the two-ply sheet sandwiching the sheet medium. The conveyor conveys the two-ply sheet sandwiching the sheet medium from the sheet separating device to the laminate-fixing device. The laminate-fixing device is disposed above the sheet separating device.

A sheet laminator including a thermal pressure roller, a power cutoff device, a mover, a power line, and circuitry. The thermal pressure roller pair includes first and second rollers, and first and second heaters, to form a nip region to press and convey a two-ply sheet. The power cutoff device detects a change in temperature of at least one of the first or second roller, and cuts off a power to at least one of the first or second heater. The mover relatively moves the second roller away from the first roller. The power line couples the power cutoff device to the mover. The circuitry is to cause the power cutoff device to cut off the power line, and cause the mover to relatively move the second roller away from the first roller, in response to the power cutoff to at least one of the first or second heater.

A heating device including, an endless belt, a heater, a temperature detector, a high thermal conductor including a hole or a notch, a holder restricts a movement of the high thermal conductor in at least at a downstream of the first direction, a first gap along the first direction formed between an upstream surface in the first direction of the temperature detector and an upstream surface in the first direction of the hole or the notch of the high thermal conductor, a second gap along the first direction formed between a downstream surface in the first direction of the high thermal conductor and a downstream surface in the first direction of the housing portion, wherein a size A of the first gap and a size B of the second gap satisfy a relationship of A>B.
