SHARP SP2105 Technical Report

Date: Feb. 25, 1997
COPIER : SF-2050
1.MEASURE TO PREVENT PAPER JAMS AT THE UPPER SEPARA T OR PAWL IN THE FUSING UNIT.
2.MEASURE TO PREVENT PAPER JAMS DUE TO MALFUNCTIONING OF THE TRANSPORT CLUTCH.
3.IMPROVEMENTS TO THE FUSING UNIT AND UPPER PAWL FIXING PLA T E.
There have been requests from the marketplace to have the previous technical reports relating to paper jams sent out as a set ,so we send those previous reports along with this one.
No. : SP-2105
1.Model Name: SF-2050
2.General: (1) When attempting to remove jammed paper in the direction of the paper delivery after
the copy paper has jammed in an accordion form at the fusing upper separator pawl, the leading edge of the upper separator pawl sometimes gets caught on the fusing rear lower paper guide (P/G ). If copy operations are carried out in this condition
17 -22
paper jams will occur. When jams occur due to the reason described above, there is a danger of damage occurring to the leading edge of the fusing upper separator pawl, and therefore caution should be exercised to check for damage if such an occurrence should happen.
(2) When removing jammed paper from the machine, the fusing upper separator pawl
can get caught on the raised section of the fusing rear upper paper guide (P/G )
16 -44
which sometimes causes paper jams to occur.
To alleviate the two problems described above, the following measures have been carried out.
3.Description: (1) As shown in the figure below, four sections of the fusing rear lower paper guide have been cut to alleviate the problem of the leading edge of the fusing upper separator pawl from getting caught.

(2) The raised section of the fusing rear upper paper guide has been cut (four locations)
to alleviate the problem of the rear edge of the fusing upper separator pawl from getting caught.

Note: There is a possibility of the same problem occurring if an error is committed in the
sequence each time a change in the position of the upper separator pawl is carried out (every 100 k), and this has been reported in T/R SP-1987. For this reason your cooperation in exercising caution to insure that the proper sequence is maintained is requested. Furthermore, for machines already out on the market, the raised sections of the fusing upper paper guide (four locations) should be cut as a measure to alleviate the problems described above (the raised sections of the fusing upper paper guide can easily be broken off by using long nose pliers.
4.Action: From 1996 mid-April production.
2. Measure to prevent paper jams due to malfunctioning of the transport clutch.
1.Model Name: SF-2050
2.General: <Problem>
Deviations in the leading edge of copy images and copy paper jams both due to ’z’ folding of the copy paper in the copy paper transport section of the machine sometimes occur.
<Cause>
If the time required for the clutch changeover is too short when an ’ON’ signal from the PPD3 sensor is sent from the transport clutch TRC2H to the transport clutch TRC2L, the worst possible condition may occur, whereby the TRC2H and the TRC2L clutches both registering as ON, which can sometimes result in damage to the TRC2L clutch.
2/5
3.Description: In order to alleviate the problem of the TRC2H clutch and the TRC2L clutch both being
set to ’ON’ at the same time, the ROM software has been changed so that the ON/OFF status of the TRC2H and the TRC2L clutches is to be monitored every 1 msec. If both the TRC2H and the TRC2L clutches are determined to be set to ’ON’ at the same time, the TRC2H clutch is to be changed to ’OFF’ within 1 msec, which is sufficient to prevent damage from occurring to the TRC2L clutch.(Ver. 4.00 Ver. 4.01)
We have lengthened the sleeve covering the transport clutch spring to prevent the spring from coming loose.

3. Improvements to the fusing unit and upper pawl fixing plate.
1.Model Name: SF-2050
2.General: During a paper jam, if the paper feedout cabinet is opened and then closed again but
the jammed paper is not removed, the fusing unit’s upper pawl fixing plate may change shape. To prevent this problem, we have made the following changes.
3.Description: We have added a reinforcem ent sheet and pawl stopper sheet to the upper pawl fixing plate.
We have changed the screws for the stopper from M4x16 to M4x6 and changed the shape of the fusing upper cover , in order to increase the rotation angle of the upper pawl fixing sheet.
