CHAPTER 2 BASIC OPERATION

II. BASIC OPERATIONS

A. Outline
The ADF is equipped with three motors for separation, feeding, and delivery (reversal) and one brake.
The separation motor (M1) is used to separate and pick up originals. The feed motor (M2) is used to move originals to and stop them at the copyboard glass, while the reversal delivery motor (M3) is deigned to deliver or reverse originals. The brake (BK) serves to stop the operation of the feed motor (M2).

CHAPTER 2 BASIC OPERATION
B. Detecting an Original
1. Outline
The ADF is equipped with the following
three types of original detecting mechanisms:
a. Detecting the Presence/Absence of
an Original
It detects the presence/absence of an
original on the original tray.
b. Identifying the Size of an Original
It identifies the length (feeding direction)
and width of an original.
c. Detecting the Last Original
It detects the trailing edge of the last
original.
a. Detecting the Presence/Absence of
an Original
The presence/absence of an original on the original tray is detected by the original set sensor. When an original is placed on the original tray, the light from the light-emitting side of the original set sensor is blocked, and the light-receiving side of the original set sensor starts to send the original detection signal (EMP) to the ADF controller PCB.
In response, the ADF controller PCB generates the original set indicator ON signal (OGLED) to turn not the Original Set indicator (U507).

CHAPTER 2 BASIC OPERATION
b. Identifying the Size of an Original
The ADF identifies the size of an original in terms of length (feeding direction) and width.
The length is computed in reference to the number of clock signals from the pre­registration sensor (U502) and the registration roller.
When the pre-registration sensor detects the leading edge of an original (ON) and the trailing edge (OFF), the ADF controller computes the time taken by the original to move past the pre-registration sensor with reference to the number of clock signals from the feed motor clock sensor (SR1) to find out the size in the lengthwise direction (feeding direction).
The ADF controller uses the result to identify a default size, and communicates it to the copier so that copy paper of the appropriate size may be selected.
The ADF refers to the original width detecting volume (U508) located inside the original tray to find out the width of an original.
The original width detecting volume operates in conjunction with the slide guides, and the resistance of the voltage varies in analog mode. The ADF controller uses changes occurring in the resistance as the original size detection signal (WIDE), and uses them to find out the width of a specific original.

· Slide Guide Lock
The ADF is equipped with a slide guide lock so that the slide guides will not move any farther than 297 mm (A4 length or A3 width).
If an original larger than 297 mm is used, the slide guide lock may be released (to accommodate up to 305 mm). The length of the original, nevertheless, must be 32 mm or less.
The copier assumes that any original is an original of a default size based on the data on length and width from the ADF. Tables 2-201,
-202, and -203 show the default sizes that the copier will assume in reference to the length and width data.

A default size is identified in reference to ±10 mm for the length of an original, and ±5 mm for the width. Any lengths or widths falling outside these ranges will be assumed to represent a non-default size original.

c. Identifying the last Original
A copier with a long paper path (from cassette to drum) is designed to pick up copy paper early to enable faster copying operation. As such, when the ADF picks up the last original and places it on the copyboard glass, the copier may already have finished picking up copy paper.
The ADF moves the second original as far as the pre-registration sensor immediately after it picks up the first original (advance separation). If the last original sensor does not detect an original, the ADF controller will

CHAPTER 2 BASIC OPERATION
· Counting Originals
The number of times that the registration sensor has turned on in response to the trailing edge of an original is used as the number of originals.
The ADF is not equipped with an original feed mode for counting originals when making double-sided copies of single-sided originals. The originals are copied in order of how they are picked up and delivered accordingly.

CHAPTER 2 BASIC OPERATION
C. Picking Up and Separating Originals
1. Outline
The pickup roller and the lifter are moved up so as to hold the entire stack of originals, and the separation roller is rotated. When this takes place while the stack is butted against the separation pad, the topmost sheet is separated from the rest of the stack.
The pickup roller is moved down and the lifter is moved up by rotating the separation motor (M1) counterclockwise. On the other hand, the pickup roller is moved up, the lifter is moved down, and the separation roller is turned by rotating the separation motor (M1) clockwise.
The separation assembly is equipped with a separation sensor (SR3) to monitor the movement of originals.
When the copier’s Copy Start key is pressed while originals are placed on the original tray, the originals are picked up and separated in the following sequence of operations:
Separation sensor
Registration roller
Separation roller
Pickup roller
Lifter

CHAPTER 2 BASIC OPERATION
1. Starting Ascent (pre-separation)
When the separation motor (M1) rotates counterclockwise, the lifter moves up to hold up the entire stack of originals from under, while at the same time the pickup roller moves down onto the stack to hold it in place.
The separation motor rotates counterclockwise for 250 msec and then stops.
Figure 2-209
3. Arching
The original is butted against the registration roller, and is made to arch. The separation roller stops to rotate 52 msec after the pre-registration sensor (U502) detects the leading edge of the original.
Figure 2-211
2. Pickup/Separation Operations
When the separation motor (M1) rotates clockwise, its drive reaches the pickup roller and the separation roller and, as a result, the first (topmost) original is picked up. The separation pad is used to make sure that only one original is separated and moved to the registration roller.
At the end of this operation, the lifter starts to move down, and then the pickup roller moves up.

CHAPTER 2 BASIC OPERATION
2. Moving Up the Pickup Roller Unit
The pickup roller and the lifter are designed to operate (move up and down) in conjunction with
the separation motor (M1).
Separation Motor Rotating Counterclockwise
When the separation motor rotates counterclockwise, the work of a cam disengages the lock used
to keep the pickup roller in place, and the pickup roller starts to move down on its own weight.
In addition, the drive reaches the arm of the lifter, causing the lifter to move up. This operation
moves up the originals while they are held intact in preparation for pickup operation.

When the separation motor (M1) rotates clockwise, the work of the cam moves down the lifter, and then the pickup roller returns to the ascent position. When the separation motor is rotating clockwise, the work of the one-way clutch lets the rotation drive of the separation motor (M1) to reach the separation roller and the pickup roller. When the separation motor rotates counterclockwise, its rotation drive will not reach the separation roller or the pickup roller.

CHAPTER 2 BASIC OPERATION
1. When the copier’s Copy Start key is pressed, the separation motor (M1) starts to rotate counterclockwise. In response, the lock used to keep the pickup roller in place becomes disengaged, and the pickup roller falls down on the original on its own weight. The work of a cam, on the other hand, moves up the lifter and, consequently, the original. The separation motor rotates counterclockwise for 250 msec and then stops to end ascent.
M1
3. A moment after the separation motor starts to rotate clockwise, the lifter starts to move down by the work of the cam. Then, the pickup roller starts to move up while rotating, returning to its initial position.
M1
Figure 2-216
Figure 2-214
2. When the pickup roller stops moving down and the lifter stops moving up, the separation motor starts to rotate clockwise so that its rotation drives the separation roller and the pickup roller, moving the first original to the separation assembly.
M1
4. When the pre-registration sensor (U502) detects the trailing edge of the original (OFF), the separation motor starts to rotate counterclockwise once again. In response, the lock used to keep the pickup roller in place becomes disengaged, and the pickup roller falls down onto the original on its own weight. The work of the cam, on the other hand, moves up the lifter to hold up the original.
