Generally, the end of the feed roller has a disengaging pawl that is engageable with the drive train. When the paper is separated, the power cannot be transmitted to the paper-carrying roller; when the paper is combined, the power can be transmitted to the paper-carrying roller to smoothly carry out the paper-carrying action.
When the separating pawl engages the drive system, it is bumped as a result of the engaging of the separating pawl at random angles to the drive system. In order to avoid the damage of the separating claw due to the impact, in the prior art, the clutch structure is designed to include the separating claw, a spring and a metal snap ring, and the spring is disposed between the metal snap ring and the separating claw to absorb the impact by the elastic force of the spring.
However, in the conventional structure design of the separating pawl and the spring, when the separating pawl rotates, the spring often rubs the metal retaining ring, and the contact surface between the spring and the separating pawl generates friction, which causes noise. Moreover, after the spring is used for a long time, the elastic force of the spring is attenuated.
Therefore, how to develop a separating claw and a clutch structure suitable for the separating claw is a key subject in the prior art, so as to improve the problems and disadvantages in the prior art, avoid the impact and friction generated during the separation and the rotation of the separating claw, reduce the noise generation, and avoid the attenuation of the elastic force after long-term use.
