    Abstract: An apparatus for producing items in selected configurations and a system and method for controlling the same. More particularly, an apparatus for producing mail pieces and a system and method for controlling it to produce mail pieces in a variety of configurations are disclosed. The apparatus includes a laser printer and folding sealing apparatus controlled by a data processor. The folder sealer apparatus combines sheets printed by the laser printer with pre-printed sheets and envelope forms, which also may be printed by the laser printer or may be windowed envelopes, folds the sheets as necessary and folds and seals the envelope form about the folded sheets to produce a mail piece. A user inputs a configuration for the mail piece which is translated by the data processor into a data structure and transmitted to the controller of the folder sealer apparatus. The controller controls devices comprised in the laser printer and the folder sealer by executing state routines in accordance with the data structure to produce the mail piece in the defined configuration. Concurrently the data processor transmits text from an output file to the laser printer for printing on printed sheets and envelope forms. The data processor also controls the laser printer to print an address for the mail piece either on an envelope form or on a printed sheet in a position where it will be visible through the envelope. Thus the apparatus is controlled to process an output file stored in the data processor into a mail run having a selected configuration. A mechanism and method for laterally aligning an accumulation of sheets is also disclosed, together with a cantilevered urge roller for the aligning mechanism.

    Abstract: An apparatus for forming one or more folds in a sheet having a trailing edge and a leading edge. The apparatus including: a device for forming a buckle in the sheet, a mechanism for folding the sheet along the buckle, and an auxiliary feed path for directing the leading edge of the sheet out of contact with the folding mechanism and returning the sheet back to the buckle forming device.

    Abstract: An envelope is moved along a first path by a first pair of rollers, with the envelope oriented with its lower edge forward, the front panel next to the path, and the flap open. A second pair of rollers is positioned with its nip near the path for capturing the upper edge and flap of the envelope as it clears the first pair of rollers. Preferably the first and second pairs of rollers share a common central roller. A deflector deflects the leading edge of the envelope towards a resilient stop. The stop engages the leading edge of the envelope and urges it back towards the nip of the second pair of rollers. As the upper edge of the envelope clears the nip of the first pair of rollers the force supplied by the first pair of rollers is decoupled from the envelope and force applied by the resilient stop urges the upper edge and flap back towards the nip of the second pair of rollers, which engages the upper edge and folds and seals the flap against the rear panel of the envelope. The deflector is formed of a resilient sheet which deflects in response to contact with the leading edge of the envelope so that the rate at which the envelope is deflected is inversely proportional to the stiffness of the envelope and buckling of the envelope is avoided.

    Abstract: An accumulator for accumulating sheets of material such as sheets of paper, the sheets being of substantially any length and the accumulation being in substantially any order. The accumulator includes a mechanism for moving a sequence of sheets along a first path until the leading edges of the sheets meet a deflector which deflects the sheets onto a second path. The leading portions of the sheets pass through a retraining mechanism and are stopped by a selectively activatable mechanism such as a gate and successive sheets form an accumation at the stop mechanism. As the feed mechanism continues to feed a sheet after it is stopped, the sheet buckles in a direction determined by the angle between the first and second paths, and as the feed mechanism continues to feed the sheet the buckle grows into a loop which unrolls into a receiver, which may be no more than a space provided. As the loop continues to unroll into the receiver and the trailing edge of the sheet is released by the feed mechanism, the trailing edge of the sheet is displaced from the paths, and the next sheet may be fed. Because the trailing edge is displaced from any possible interference with the following sheet, sheets of substantially any length great enough to reach from the feed mechanism to the restraining mechanism can be fed in substantially any order without the possibility of interference between successive sheets.
