A sheet conveyance apparatus includes a body portion, an openable portion supported by the body portion and configured to be opened and closed with respect to the body portion, a first movable guide supported by the openable portion and movable to a first position at which a first conveyance path through which a sheet is conveyed is formed between the first movable guide and the openable portion and a second position at which the first path is opened, a second movable guide movably supported by the first movable guide, and an abutment portion provided in the body portion. In a state where the openable portion is closed, the second movable guide abut with the abutment portion and is held on a position to form a second conveyance path through which the sheet is conveyed.

There is provided a sheet post-processing device that has a first tray, outlet rollers, and a control section. The first tray holds sheets for post-processing with respect to the sheets supplied from an image forming device. The outlet rollers discharge the sheet to the first tray. The control section controls a rotational speed of the outlet rollers to be decelerated after a leading end portion of the sheet passes through the outlet rollers and before the leading end portion of the sheet comes into contact with the first tray.

An adjustable tray includes a first board, a second board and an adjustment component. The second board is pivoted on the first board, and the second board has at least one first position section and at least one second position section. The adjustment component includes a main part and at least one abutted part connected to each other. A first distance is between the first position section and the first board. A second distance is between the second position section and the first board. The first distance is different from the second distance. The main part is movably disposed on the first board for positioning the abutted part at the first position section or the second position section to pivot the second board with a first angle or a second angle between the first board and the second board, and the first angle is different from the second angle.

A feeder device for feeding mailpieces to a postal sorting conveyor has an unstacker head designed to put the mailpieces in series and on edge on the sorting conveyor, an unstacker plate designed to unstack the mailpieces one-by-one towards the unstacker head, and a mailpiece feed conveyor designed to convey the mailpieces in a stack and on edge against the unstacker plate. The unstacker plate has a stationary portion that extends from the unstacker head, and a moving portion that extends the stationary portion, said moving portion being mounted to pivot from the stationary portion between a first position in which the stationary portion and the moving portion are aligned with each other, and a second position in which the stationary portion and the moving portion are angularly offset relative to each other.

A conveyance apparatus according to the disclosure includes a conveyance unit that conveys a sheet, a flapper movable between a first position and a second position, a flapper moving unit that moves the flapper to the first position when power is supplied, a door to open a predetermined conveyance path and a second conveyance path, a detection unit that detects an occurrence of an abnormal state relating to the conveyance apparatus, and a control unit that, in a case where the detection unit detects the occurrence of the abnormal state while a sheet is conveyed to the first conveyance path by the conveyance unit and the flapper is in the first position, stops a sheet conveyance operation of the conveyance unit and inhibits the flapper from moving to the second. position by continuing to supply power to the flapper moving unit.
