A recording medium processing apparatus includes: a first conveyance unit that conveys a recording medium; a cutting member that is provided alongside the first conveyance unit in a width direction of the conveyed recording medium and cuts the recording medium along a conveying direction of the recording medium; a second conveyance unit that is located upstream of the first conveyance unit in the conveying direction and conveys the recording medium having reached a predetermined conveyance route; and a preventing or avoiding unit that, in the recording medium which is conveyed by the first conveyance unit and whose upstream end in the conveying direction has not passed the predetermined conveyance route, prevents or avoids a portion overlapped with the cutting member in the conveying direction from being pulled by the second conveyance unit.

A recording medium processing apparatus includes a pair of first conveyance units provided at an interval in a width direction of a recording medium to be conveyed, each of the first conveyance units pinching and conveying the recording medium; a cutting member that cuts the recording medium being conveyed by the first conveyance units along a conveyance direction of the recording medium; and a second conveyance unit provided between the pair of first conveyance units in the width direction and inside the cutting member, the second conveyance unit pinching the recording medium and conveying the recording medium, together with the pair of first conveyance units, at a conveyance speed of the recording medium lower than each of the pair of first conveyance units.

A sheet material feeding apparatus includes a first roll 106, and a second roll 108 arranged vertically below first roll 106, to feed a sheet material clamped between the first roll 106 and the second roll 108. The sheet material feeding apparatus further includes a first motor 102 provided with a rotatable first motor shaft 104 coupled to the first roll 106, and a second motor 103 provided with a rotatable second motor shaft 105 coupled to the second roll 108. The first motor shaft 104 and the second motor shaft 105 rotate at substantially the same rotation speed to allow the first roll 106 and the second roll 108 to rotate in synchronization with each other.

A mobile hose reel assembly (100) includes a housing (110). The housing (110) includes a first wall (112), a second wall (114) coupled with and disposed opposite to the first wall (112) and a handle portion (116) coupled with the first wall (112) and the second wall (114). The housing (110) further includes a hose reel module (120) housed within the housing (110). The hose reel module (120) includes a hose reel (122), a drive motor (124) operatively coupled to the hose reel (122) and a transmission mechanism (126) adapted to transmit the motion of the drive motor (124) to the hose reel (122). The mobile hose reel assembly (100) is characterized in that the hose reel module (120) is adapted to exhibit a rocking motion relative to the housing (110). Further, the drive motor (124) is selectively activated and deactivated based on the rocking motion of the hose reel module (120) relative to the housing (110).
