The Takeup Module (300) may further comprise a Takeup Spool Window (350) configured to provide a view of a Takeup Spool (345) within the Takeup Module (300). Also disclosed is a Takeup Spool (500) comprising a Spool Alignment Tab Wheel (505), a Spool Ribbed Shaft (510), a Rib Quarter Section Cutout (515), a Spool Alignment Slot Wheel (525), a Spool Alignment Tab (530), a Spool Alignment Slot (535), a Plurality of Wheel Cutouts (540), and a Plurality of Wheel Slots (545). Also disclosed is a method for maintaining clear vision with goggles comprising receiving a command input via a knuckle bump, transmitting a designated signal to a module comprising a Motor and a Takeup Spool, activating the Motor to cause the Takeup Spool to rotate, and winding a Transparent Film a designated distance over goggles.
Recording apparatus, method for transporting recording medium, and method for notifying information of remaining amount of recording medium
A method is for notifying information of a remaining amount of a recording medium in a recording apparatus including a delivery section that rotates and delivers a roll-shaped recording medium, a transport belt that transports the recording medium delivered from the delivery section, and a slack sensor that detects a slackened state in the recording medium delivered from the delivery section to the transport belt. The method includes notifying the information of the remaining amount of the recording medium if the slack sensor detects a lack of slack of the recording medium in a period of a first time or more.
Drive device for stamping foil, unwinding module and stamping machine thus equipped
Drive device for unwinding a reel of foil in an unwinding module of a stamping machine, having an inactive position, and an active position in engagement with the reel, and comprising: a belt, having an inactive configuration, and an active configuration for contacting a portion of the reel and driven by a driver of the module so as to unwind the reel, rollers, maintaining the belt in the inactive and the active configuration, a translatable roller, which engages the belt and compensates for variations in length when the belt moves from the inactive to the active configuration, and a biasing arrangement, attached to the roller and thereby keeping the belt tensioned in both the inactive and the active configuration, and the biasing arrangement is actuated and disengaged from the belt, to move the belt from the inactive to the active configuration and vice versa.
SYNCHRONOUS SERVO FEEDING SYSTEM FOR PUNCHING MACHINE AND METHOD FOR OPERATING THE SAME
The present invention provides a synchronous servo feeding system for punching machine and the method for operating the same. According to the present invention, a servo feeding device is provided on one side of a punching machine for guiding a material strip into the punching machine for processing. In addition, a servo pulling device is provided on the other side of the punching machine for conveying a finished strip from the punching machine. Besides, a central servo control system is provided for controlling the servo feeding device and the servo pulling device. Thereby, the material strip can be fed and pulled synchronously.
Sheet processing apparatus for pressing a fold line and image forming system
A sheet processing apparatus is configured to press a fold line that is formed on a sheet. The sheet processing apparatus includes: a sheet supporting unit configured to support the sheet in a pressing direction for pressing the fold line; a pressing unit configured to press the fold line that is formed on the sheet that is supported by the sheet supporting unit; and a pressing-force generating unit configured to generate a pressing force for pressing the sheet supporting unit against the pressing unit at a central part in a direction along which the fold line is formed.
Transport device and printing apparatus
A printing apparatus includes a control unit that calculates a transport amount (an actual transport amount) during a transport period based on a captured image of a medium by an imaging unit and controls a transport unit. In addition, the control unit calculates the transport amount (the actual transport amount) during the transport period by calculating the transport amount at each calculation interval (a divided transport amount) and integrating the transport amount at each calculation interval (the divided transport amount). Then, the control unit causes the calculation interval to be longer in a case where the transporting speed of the medium is low than in a case where the transporting speed of the medium is high.
Recording device
The medium feed device has a meandering detection sensor which detects position displacement of a recording medium in a width direction, and a control section which controls driving of a width movement unit based on detection results by the meandering detection sensor. The control section stops driving of the width movement unit when stopping feeding of the intermittent feeding.
Inkjet recording device
An inkjet recording device includes a movement unit configured to move a recording medium or a placement part for placing the recording medium thereon; a detection unit configured to continuously detect movement of the recording medium or the placement part; and a control unit configured to control the movement unit and the detection unit. The detection unit includes a gripping unit having a gripping part for gripping the recording medium or the placement part and a detection part for continuously detecting movement of the gripping unit. The gripping unit is configured to move in conjunction with the movement of the recording medium or the placement part by gripping the recording medium or the placement part by the gripping part. The control unit is configured to control the movement of the movement unit on the basis of a detection result by the detection part when the gripping unit is moved.
