Abstract:
The invention pertains to a print media discharge unit, comprising a print media transport path along which in operation a sheet of print media is transported in a transport direction, the print media transport path is defined by a first electrically isolating print media guide and a second electrically isolating print media guide, the print media discharge unit further comprising an electrically grounded electrically conductive discharge element extending through an opening in at least one of said first and second electrically isolating print media guides into the print media transport path, wherein at least one of said first and second electrically isolating print media guide comprise a plurality of guidance ribs aligned substantially in the transport direction at an angle with respect to the transport direction.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a reversing device for a film web, which has a take-off device, at least one turning-device and at least one deflecting roller, wherein the film web can be guided by the take-off device via the at least one turning device and the at least one deflecting roller to a winding device and the axes of the take-off device, the at least one turning device and the at least one deflecting roller are adjustable in angle relative to one another, characterised in that the at least one deflecting roller is formed as an expander roller having an expanding capacity which increases towards the end faces of the deflecting roller.
Abstract:
Devices and methods to collect and align print media sheets. According to a device herein, a tray has a base and receives print media sheets. Registration guides are connected to the tray. The registration guides define a corner in the tray. A tamper mechanism comprises a rotating helical brush extending perpendicularly from the base adjacent to a side of the tray opposite the corner. The tamper mechanism is positioned to tamp the print media sheets against the registration guides causing a stack of the print media sheets to be squared against the corner.
Abstract:
An image-forming device includes: an image-forming unit; a sheet discharge unit; a sheet support unit; and a reading unit. The image-forming unit forms images on a recording sheet. The sheet discharge unit discharges, in a sheet discharging direction, a recording sheet formed with an image by the image-forming unit. The sheet support unit is disposed above the image-forming unit, and supports sheet discharged from the sheet discharge unit. The reading unit is disposed above the sheet support unit, with an underside surface of the reading unit opposing a top surface of the sheet support unit. The sheet discharge unit is configured to discharge the sheet diagonally upwardly so that sheet discharged by the sheet discharge unit contacts the underside surface of the reading unit.
Abstract:
Provided is an electrostatic discharging apparatus, which comprises a rotation shaft, a transfer roller, and an electrostatic discharging member. The rotation shaft transmits driving force. The transfer roller is disposed on the rotation shaft to transfer a medium. The electrostatic discharging member is disposed on the rotation shaft to rotate together with the rotation shaft, and comprises a plurality of brushes for removing static electricity.
Abstract:
A sheet braking mechanism for a sheet punching and/or embossing machine for the braking a sheet in a processing station of the sheet punching and/or embossing machine, includes a movable pneumatic sheet brake and a movable carrier, on which at least one brake brush is mounted. The pneumatic sheet brake and the carrier are mechanically coupled, for example, by a driving element, so that a movement of the pneumatic sheet brake causes a movement of the carrier.
Abstract:
A method of advancing packaging blanks disposed standing upright in a magazine, one after the other, in a file or queue resting against the bottom of the magazine and disposed to be driven forwards through the magazine towards a stop at an outlet end for individual discharge comprises the file or queue of blanks being divided into two pressure zones, a first and forward pressure zone extending from the zone limit between the pressure zones up to the stop and displaying a first mutual pressure between neighboring blanks, as well as a rear second pressure zone displaying a second mutual pressure between neighboring blanks. The first mutual pressure is higher than the second mutual pressure. Another aspect of the disclosure pertains to an apparatus for carrying out advancement of the packaging blanks.
Abstract:
Device for the transport and weighing of letters, wherein the letter is conveyed between at least two conveyance elements and is stabilized laterally outside the conveyance elements by at least one guide element so that a deflection or fluttering of the letter can be reduced or avoided, at least when the letter is seized at its front edge by the transport elements.
Abstract:
A conveyor table of a cutting machine capable of making a difference in level between a conveyor table and a air table small, and preventing a sheet material from shifting or collapsing with a simple configuration is provided. A pair of caterpillar tracks 10 formed by bridging a chain 11 over a pair of sprockets 12, 13 arranged at a carry-in side end and a carry-out side end in a conveying direction, a plurality of brush mounts 20 attached to the chain 11 in parallel to connect the caterpillar tracks 10, and a brush block 30 having bristles 32 arrayed on each of the brush mounts 20 are arranged. The brush mount 20 has a portion on the carry-in side fixed to the chain 11 and a portion on the carry-out side not fixed to the chain 11.
