METAL SQUARING TABLE
A table for squaring metal sheets and metal plates by means of applying controlled pressure to the edges of such sheets or plates to bring them into symmetrical alignment for further processing.
PRINT MEDIA ACCUMULATORS CONTROLLED BY PRINT JOB ATTRIBUTES
A finisher apparatus includes an accumulator to register a print medium of a print job in preparation for a finishing operation, memory to store an attribute of the print job, and a processor coupled to the accumulator and the memory. The processor is to execute instructions. The instructions are to control the accumulator based on the attribute of the print job.
Tray unit assembly
A tray unit assembly includes a housing, a separating/stacking unit, a tray unit and an elevating member. The separating/stacking unit includes a separating roller unit and a stacking roller unit provided in the housing. The tray unit is provided to be inserted into the housing and includes a first tray body fixed to the housing when the tray unit is inserted into the housing, and a second tray body connected to the first tray body to be slidable in a vertical direction and having a media stacking space formed therein. The elevating member is disposed to be movable up and down and configured to be in contact with a bottom surface of the second tray body to move the second tray body toward the stacking roller unit or the separating roller unit.
BAG SUPPLY SYSTEM
A bag supply system includes: a bag bundle delivery device moves bag bundles from a delivery relay position to a delivery zone; a bag bundle conveyance device which receives the bag bundles from the bag bundle delivery device in the delivery zone and conveys the bag bundles from the delivery zone to a supply zone in a state where the bag bundles are supported by a support part; a bag bundle takeoff device which holds the bag bundles supported by the support part in the supply zone and moves the bag bundles from the bag bundle conveyance device to a supply relay position; and a bag supply device which sequentially supplies bags included in each of the bag bundles arranged in the supply relay position, to a packaging machine. The support part moves along an endless track between the delivery zone and the supply zone.
Adjustable dish stacking cart
A dish cart includes a top with a slot for receiving a lift arm that may be lifted up through the slot to raise or lower dishes. Lobe openings emanating from the slot receive lobes of a lift paddle secured to the lift arm. The cart may define a gap below the top for permitting insertion of the lift paddle and the lift arm. The cart may be adjusted to receive differently sized dishes by means of rails of different sizes or adjustable vanes. A dish drop station includes the lift arm and lift paddle and a lift mechanism for raising and lower the lift arm. The dish drop station may include a cart present sensor and include a lock for retaining the cart. The controller may be programmed to the lower the lift arm to an unlock position that disengages the cart lock.
MACHINE AND PROCESS FOR FOLDING, CUTTING, AND STACKING NAPKINS
A machine for folding, cutting, and stacking napkins is provided. The machine has a feeding station, at least one pair of folding rollers pivoting about horizontal rotational axes, a blade, and a pair of spacers having fingers configured to support the napkins stably downstream of the blade, with respect to a horizontal plane perpendicular to a direction of travel, the folding rollers being provided with circumferential slots for inserting the spacers.
AN INTERFOLDING MACHINE WITH SEPARATION FINGERS ADJACENT TO RESPECTIVE INTERFOLDING ROLLERS
The interfolding machine includes a first interfolding roller rotating around a first rotation axis and a second interfolding roller rotating around a second rotation axis parallel to the first rotation axis; wherein the first interfolding roller and the second interfolding roller form an interfolding nip therebetween. The interfolding machine further includes a first set of separation fingers associated with the first interfolding roller and arranged for reciprocatingly pivoting around a first pivoting axis parallel to the first rotation axis. The reciprocating pivoting movement of the first set of separation fingers is controlled by a first actuation mechanism including a first desmodromic cam. The interfolding machine also includes a second set of separation fingers associated with the second interfolding roller and arranged for reciprocatingly pivoting around a second pivoting axis parallel to the second rotation axis. The reciprocating pivoting movement of the second set of separation fingers is controlled by a second actuation mechanism including a second desmodromic.
BANK NOTE CONTAINER PROVISION SYSTEM
An apparatus is provided for receiving, temporarily storing and dispensing bank note containers as well as to a transport apparatus dockable thereto. The present invention further relates to a system arrangement comprising the proposed apparatus as well as the proposed transport apparatus. Further, a method arranged for operating the system arrangement is proposed as well as a computer program product having control commands executing the proposed method or operating the proposed system arrangement.
Post-processing apparatus
The present application discloses a post-processing apparatus which performs a predetermined process after an image formation process performed by an image formation apparatus. The post-processing apparatus includes an ejection tray, which supports a sheet stack, in which sheets are stacked, and a curl prevention portion including a first tray cursor, which abuts an upper surface of the sheet stack on the ejection tray to prevent the sheet stack from curling. The curl prevention portion includes an angle changer, which changes an inclination angle of the first tray cursor with respect to the ejection tray. The angle changer sets the inclination angle to a first value when a number of sheets is a first number. The angle changer sets the inclination angle to a second value different from the first value when the number of the sheets is a second number different from the first number.
Paper sheet processing device
Provided is a paper sheet processing device in which a plurality of paper sheets stacked after processing can be easily taken out in a state where ends thereof are aligned, without binding the paper sheets. The paper sheet processing device includes a stacking unit 6 that stacks therein the paper sheets after being processed by a processing unit 4. The stacking unit 6 includes a stacking unit main body 7, and a storage box 9 that can be taken in and out of a box storage space 7a of the stacking unit main body 7.
