January 31, 2000 PRE-STACK MECHANISM

2.2 PRE-STACK MECHANISM

This mechanism improves productivity in staple mode and shift mode. During stapling, the copier has to wait. This mechanism reduces the wait by
holding the first two sheets of a job while the previous job is still being stapled. It only works during the second and subsequent sets of a multi-set copy job.

A763D570.PCX
In sort and stack mode, only the 1st sheet of copy paper from the 2nd set is shifted to the front to separate each set of copies.
When the copy paper comes into the staple tray [A], the upper exit guide [B] (whi ch contains the upper exit roller) opens. The paper switches back to the stopper [C]. Then the front guide release solenoid [D] turns on and the front guide [E] is released, the shift motor moves jogger fence [F] to the front, and the copy paper shifts to the front by 30 mm.
[E]
[D]
After copy paper has been shifted, the upper exit guide closes and the lower exit roller [G] turns in the opposite direction to feed out the copy paper.

When the tr ailing edge of the 1st copy paper passes the 2nd tran sport roller [A], the lower exit roller [B] stops and turns reverse. At the same time, the upper guide plate motor turns on and opens the upper exit guide [C]. The copy paper is sent to the stopper [D] by the lower exit roller and feed belt [E], and it is aligned the by jogger motor.
The feed belt solenoid [F] turns on to move the feed belt to the stopper. This function prevents excessive buckling of the paper between belt and stopper.
The paddles [G] send the paper to the stopper starting from the 2nd copy paper. When the trailing edge of the 2nd copy paper passes the 2nd transport roller, the paddle solenoid [H] turns on and the drive from the transport roller transmits to the paddle shaft.

STAPLER UNIT MOVEMENT MECHANISM January 31, 2000

2.5 STAPLER UNIT MOVEMENT MECHANISM

2.5.1 DRIVE

[A] The stapler motor [A] drives the stapler unit drive gear [B] via a timing belt. The stapler unit guide has a rack gear [C]. The stapler unit moves along the rack gear via the stapler unit [D] drive gear.

Front and Rear Stapling
When the print key is pressed, the stapler unit moves to the center. The stapler unit moves to the front (or rear) stapling position when the copy paper comes into the finisher and stays until the copy job finishes. It returns to home position when the job is finished.
Tow-position Stapling
When the print key is pressed, the stapler unit moves to the center. The stapler unit moves to the rear stapling position first and moves to the front stapling position when stapling. Then it goes back to the center until the copy job finishes. It returns to home position when the job is finished.

The staple hammer motor [A] drives the cam [B] via 2 gears [C, D] and the guide roller on the staple hammer moves on the cam [D] . When the guide roller moves to the highest position on the cam, the copy paper is stapled.
The stapler unit contains the cartridge set switch [E], staple end switch [F] and staple position sensor [G].
The staple position sensor detects whether the staple sheet has come to the staple unit or not.

The guide gear [A] on which the shift tray is mounted is driven by the lift motor [B] via gear [C].
The finisher board detects the direction of the motor rotation and motor position using the lift motor sensors 1 [D] and 2 [E].
The lift motor contains a thermoswitch [F]. When it detects 73.5º C, the finisher board stops the lift motor until its temperature reaches approximately 40º C.
The shutter position switch [G] cuts the lift motor power for safety when the upper exit guide plate opens.
The shift tray height sensor [H] detects the distance between the sensor and the top of the copy paper on the shift tray.

There are two junction gates [A] and three paper sensors [B] at the entrance area of the booklet unit.
Depending on paper size, the appropriate gate solenoid(s) [C] are energized to close the gate(s) in order to transport paper to the positioning plate [D] through a suitable paper path.
This is done for the following reasons:
To detect the trailing ed ge of paper with the correct sensor.
To prevent the leading edge of the next sheet from hitting the trailing edge of the
previous sheets on the positioning plate.
