The present invention provides a system 100 for a paper folding machinery 200. The paper folding machinery 200 includes a roller folding unit, a strip directing The strip directing unit 220 directs a strip 300 received from the roller folding unit 210 in a predefined direction and at least one folding unit 230 folds the strip 300 received from the strip directing 200 unit 220. The system 100 includes a detecting unit 20 and mounting units 30a & 30b. The detecting unit 20 detects misalignment of the strip 300 on the strip directing unit 220 and at least one folding unit 230. Each of the mounting unit 30a and 30b enables movements in at least one direction of the strip directing unit 220 and the folding unit 230 respectively mounted thereon for correcting the misalignment of the strip 300 thereon.

Provided are a medium conveying apparatus, a control method, and a control program is to enable further reduction in the time required for conveying the medium while suppressing the occurrence of the conveyance abnormality of the medium. A medium conveying apparatus includes a conveying mechanism to convey a medium, a determination module to determine whether a conveyance abnormality of the medium has occurred, and a control module to control the conveying mechanism so as to increase a conveyance speed of the medium to be conveyed thereafter, or reduce a conveyance interval of the medium to be conveyed thereafter if the conveyance abnormality of the medium has not occurred when a predetermined number of medium is conveyed.

According to aspects of the present disclosures, when a cancel command is input during a document conveying process, drive of a conveying motor is stopped. Then, a movable plate of a feed tray is moved down from a supplying position to a lowermost position being a non-supplying position, and the drive of the conveying motor is restarted. The conveying motor is driven at least until a document sheet is discharged from a conveying path.

A feeder includes: a mount board that moves vertically while allowing sheet-shaped media to be stacked thereon; a transport device that allows an uppermost one of the sheet-shaped media stacked on the mount board to be sucked by a suction portion to transport the uppermost sheet-shaped medium to a transporter and to feed the uppermost sheet-shaped medium to a destination; left and right edge air blowers that blow air to left and right edge portions, when viewed from an upstream side in a transportation direction, of upper ones of the sheet-shaped media stacked; and left and right detectors that are disposed on left and right sides of the suction portion at the same position in the transportation direction, and that individually detect downward or upward bend amounts of left and right edge portions of the uppermost sheet-shaped medium.

A sheet conveyance apparatus includes a conveyance unit and first and second moving members respectively including first and second projection portions. When the first projection portion contacts a sheet, the first moving member is moved from a first projection position, where the first projection portion projects to a conveyance path, to a first retraction position, where the first projection portion is retracted from the first projection position. When the first moving member moves to the first retraction position, the second moving member moves from a second retraction position, where the second projection portion is retracted from the second projection position, to a second projection position, where the second projection portion projects to the conveyance path. When a sheet pushes the second projection portion, the second moving member is moved from the second projection position to the second retraction position with the first moving member located at the first retraction position.

When a sheet pushes the second projection portion, the second moving member is moved from the second projection position to the second retraction position with the first moving member located at the first retraction position.

According to some examples, a skew detection device comprises a first roller rotatable around a first axis, a second roller rotatable around a second axis, a first sensor, and a second sensor. The first sensor measures a first rotation parameter from the first roller and the second sensor measures a second rotation parameter from the second roller. A movement of a print media over the device rotates the first contact roller and the second roller, and a controller determines a skew of the print media based on the first and second rotation parameters captured by the first sensor and the second sensor.

An electrode stacking apparatus provided with a planar motor device (B) comprised of a flat plate-shaped stator (50) and a plurality of movers (40) able to move on a flat surface (51) of the stator in any direction along the flat surface (51) and able to rotate about a perpendicular axis of the flat surface (51) in a state magnetically floating from the flat surface (51). When stacking a new sheet-shaped electrode (1) held by an electrode conveyor device (A) arranged above the planar motor device (B) on a stacked electrode holder (60) of a mover (40), the mover (40) is made to move in synchronization with movement of the new sheet-shaped electrode (1) so that the new sheet-shaped electrode (1) continues to face the sheet-shaped electrode stacking position on the stacked electrode holder (60).
