2. MECHANISMS
,
2.1 Transmitting Mechanism (Feeding and Scanning Documents)
The transmitting mechanism consists of the document stacker, automatic document feeder
(ADF), document feeding related rollers, scanner, and document sensors. (For details about
the sensors, refer to Section 2.3.)
If the operator sets documents on the stacker and starts the sending operation, the ADF
feeds those documents into the equipment, page by page. Each document advances with
the separation roller to the scanner, and then it is fed out of the equipment with the LF roller.
For the drive power source, refer to Section 2.4.

2.1.1 Automatic document feeder (ADF)
The ADF, which consists of the separation roller and separator, feeds documents set on the
document stacker, starting from the bottom sheet to the top, page by page, due to the frictional difference among the separation roller, the documents, and the separator.
2.1.2 Scanner
The scanner uses a charge coupled device (CCD) image sensor.
As shown below, the LED array illuminates a document and the reflected light of the scanned
image data is transmitted via the mirrors into the lens which reduces the scanned data so as
to form the image on the CCD.

2.2 Receiving Mechanism (Feeding Recording Paper & Recording Data)
The receiving mechanism consists of the recording paper roll holder, anti-curl system (ACS),
platen, thermal recording head, automatic cutter, and sensors. (For details about the sensors, refer to Section 2.3.)
The recording paper is routed through the ACS to the recording head which prints onto the
heat-sensitive recording paper pressed by the platen according to received image signals.
The printed paper is further fed through the cutter chute and cut by the automatic cutter page
by page.
For the drive power source, refer to Section 2.4.
Upper blade
Lower blade
(Rear)
2.2.1 Anti-curl system (ACS)
The ACS eliminates curl peculiar to the rolled recording paper by curving the paper towards
the opposite side of the curl with the ACS rod and the ACS plate.

2.2.2 Automatic cutter
The automatic paper cutter consists of an upper blade (rotary) and a lower blade (stationary). As the upper blade rotates around the left end as a support, the recording paper will be
cut. Upon completion of cutting operation, the upper blade returns to the home position
which is detected by the cutter sensor.
III – 3
2.3 Sensors
This equipment has two photosensors and four mechanical sensors as described below.
Photosensors
• Document front sensor which detects a presence of documents.
• Document rear sensor which detects the leading and trailing edges of pages to tell the
control circuitry when the leading edge of a new page has reached the starting position
and when the scan for that page is over.
These two photosensors are located on the main PCB. They are of a reflection type consisting of a light-emitting diode and a light-receiving transistor. Each of them has an actuator
separately arranged (see the next page). If an actuator is activated, its white end will come
to the path of light issued from the light-emitting diode and reflect its light. The moment the
reflected light enters the light-receiving transistor, the sensor signals the detection.
Mechanical sensors
• PE (paper empty) sensor which detects whether the recording paper is present.
• Cover sensor which detects whether the recording paper cover is closed.
• Cutter sensor which detects the home position of the upper rotary blade of the automatic
cutter.
• Hook switch sensor which detects whether the handset is placed on the handset mount.
These four sensors are located on the NCU PCB. Each of them has an actuator separately
arranged (see the next page). If an actuator is activated, its lower end pushes down the lever provided on the corresponding sensor so that the sensor signals the detection.

2.4 Power Transmission Shift by the Planetary Gear Train and Clutch Solenoid
The equipment has a single drive motor whose power transmission route can be switched by
the planetary gear train and the clutch solenoid. Accordingly, the equipment mechanism can
function in four operation modes (recording, scanning, copying, and cutter driving modes).
2.4.1 Description of planetary gear train
The planetary gear train consists of the sun gear 18/73, two planet gears 20, arm A, and arm
B, as shown below.
Arm B
Sun gear 18/73
Arm A
Planet gear 20B
Sun gear 18/73
Motor gear
Arm A
Planet gear 20A
Planet gear 20A
Planet gear 20B
Arm B
Stopper of arm A
If the motor rotates, the sun gear 18/73 rotates so that the rotational force is transmitted to
the engagement between the sun gear and the planet gears 20. Since the arms and planet
gears are so designed that the moment of the arms is less than that of the planet gears, the
arms turn around the center shaft in the same direction as the sun gear 18/73.
If the planet gear(s) becomes engaged with any other gear so that the arm cannot turn furthermore, the rotational force of the sun gear 18/73 is transmitted to that planet gear. Accordingly, the planet gear starts rotation in the opposite direction of the sun gear 18/73.
III – 6
2.4.2 Power transmission for four operation modes
Depending upon the clutch solenoid ON/OFF state and the motor rotation direction, the planetary gear train switches the power transmission route for the four operation modes.

In the recording mode, the control system deactivates the clutch solenoid (see the above figure, Solenoid: OFF). Therefore, when the motor rotates in the forward direction, the clutch
lever turns clockwise with the spring and its cutout X becomes engaged with the stopper of
arm A. Once arm A is locked, the planet gear 20A (C2) will not be engaged with any other
gear but simply idle.
The motor rotation turns the sun gear 18/73 (B) counterclockwise so that the planet gear 20B
(C1) transmits the rotation to the platen gear (E) via the gear D.

[ 2 ] Scanning mode (Solenoid: OFF, Motor rotation: Reverse)
Just as in the recording mode, the control system deactivates the clutch solenoid in the
scanning mode to lock arm A.
The motor rotates in the reverse direction and the sun gear 18/73 (B) rotates clockwise so
that the planet gear 20A (C2) transmits the rotation to the separation roller gear (L) and LF
roller gear (O) via the several gears.

The control system at first activates the clutch solenoid to release the stopper of arm A from
coutout X of the clutch lever while rotating the motor in the forward direction. Accordingly,
the sun gear 18/73 (B) rotates counterclockwise so that both the planet gears 20B (C1) and
20A (C2) transmit the rotation to the platen gear (E) and the roller gears (separation roller
gear and LF roller gear), respectively.
Once the planet gear 20A becomes engaged with the gear P, the control system deactivates
the clutch solenoid.

The control system activates the clutch solenoid to release the stopper of arm A from cutout

(B) rotates clockwise so that the planet gear 20A (C2) transmits the rotation to the cutter
gear (Q).
Since the planet gear 20B (C1) is blocked by section Y of the clutch lever, it remains idling
without engaging with any other gear.

[ 4 ] Analog signal processing group
Main PCB Circuit Diagram 4/4
1 Analog front end IC
Processes the analog I/O signals from/to the MODEM.
2 Main-NCU connector
3 Analog signal selectors
3-1: Selects either RL1 or RL2 signals inputted from the communications net-
work.
3-2: Selects either input signals from the handset or those from the MODEM.
3-3: Selects either sound signals (e.g. alarm beeps, key clicks and ringer sounds)
generated by the FAX engine or signals selected by 3-1.
4 Amplifier circuit for signals outputted from the MODEM
5 Amplifier & shaper circuit for signals inputted from the communications network
6 Speaker amplifier circuit
Amplifies sounds issued from the above analog signal selector (3) and feeds them
to the speaker.
7 Speaker connector
