A post-processing device includes a processing tray, an aligning plate, a transport section, a feeding section, and a pressing section. A sheet before being subjected to stapling processing by a stapler is to be mounted on the processing tray. The aligning plate aligns ends of a plurality of sheets. The transport section transports the sheet toward the aligning plate. The feeding section is provided between the transport section and the aligning plate and feeds the sheet in a transport direction. The pressing section is provided between the transport section and the aligning plate and applies, to the sheet, a pressing force having a component in a direction opposite from the transport direction. Further, the pressing section applies the pressing force to the sheet before the feeding section applies a feeding force to the sheet.

An apparatus for unrolling film to a desired length and rapidly cutting multiple sheets of a desired size. The sheets can then be further processed and cut using templates. The system can have a polygonal wheel, an axle slot for receiving a roll of film, a first fastener for attaching the film to the polygonal wheel, a cutter for cutting the film into sheets and a second fastener for forming a stack of sheets of film. The stack of sheets can be further cut with a second cutter into a desired shape.

A post-processing apparatus that rotates a rotation paddle in which a fin having flexibility is cantilevered by a holder to apply a conveying force along a rotation direction to a sheet to align the sheet, wherein the holder includes a recess in which a peripheral surface part from a support position of the fin to an upstream side in the rotation direction is recessed from a circumscribed circle of the holder, and when the fin elastically turns while being pressed against the sheet with rotation of the rotation paddle, turning of the fin is allowed until the fin comes into contact with a surface of the recess.

A sheet conveying apparatus includes a first roller pair conveying a sheet, a second roller pair provided downstream, in a sheet conveying direction, of the first roller pair, and a moving member having an abutment portion. The moving member moves from an abutment position in a sheet conveying path upstream of a nip portion of the second roller pair to a passing position at which the sheet conveyed by the first roller pair is allowed to pass through. In a case where a first sheet and a second sheet are conveyed successively by the first roller pair, when the moving member is at the abutment position in which the abutment portion is pushed by the second sheet while the first sheet is conveyed by the second roller pair, a rear end of the first sheet is located upstream of the nip portion of the second roller pair.

A sheet conveying apparatus includes a first rotator pair, a second rotator pair provided downstream, in a sheet conveying direction, of the first rotator pair, and a moving member having an abutment portion. the first rotator pair, the second rotator pair and the moving member are configured such that a rear end of the sheet does not pass on a moving trajectory of the abutment portion when the moving member moves from a passage state in which the sheet is allowed to pass through the abutment portion as the abutment portion is pressed by the sheet conveyed by the first rotator pair to an abutment state in which the abutment portion protrudes into a sheet conveying path.

A post-processing device includes a stacking portion on which a medium having an image recorded thereon is stacked; an aligning portion that is disposed on the stacking portion and that aligns a position of an edge of the medium; a drawing member that draws the medium stacked on the stacking portion toward the aligning portion; and a guiding member that is disposed above the drawing member and that guides the medium that is transported toward the stacking portion, the guiding member including a vicinity portion that is in a vicinity of the drawing member and that is recessed so as to receive the drawing member.

A sheet conveying apparatus includes a first rotator pair, a second rotator pair provided downstream, in a sheet conveying direction, of the first rotator pair, and a moving member having an abutment portion. the first rotator pair, the second rotator pair and the moving member are configured such that a rear end of the sheet does not pass on a moving trajectory of the abutment portion when the moving member moves from a passage state in which the sheet is allowed to pass through the abutment portion as the abutment portion is pressed by the sheet conveyed by the first rotator pair to an abutment state in which the abutment portion protrudes into a sheet conveying path.
