It is single cylindrical object that pushing roller 11 is not limited to, and also can set several rollers with predetermined space along the Width of developing-out paper 3.In addition, also being not limited to is the shape of roller, as long as have the curved face part of not damaging developing-out paper 3 surfaces.
Above-mentioned pushing roller 11 is to utilize its deadweight to developing-out paper 3 applied pressures, but also can utilize the elastic force of elastomeric element such as spring, exerts pressure.For example, can be installed in pushing roller 11 leading section of leaf spring (figure do not show), it is first-class that this leaf spring is fixed on bogie side frame 2, utilizes the elastic force towards the below of leaf spring, and developing-out paper 3 is pressed on the paper feed roller 14 always.
Above-mentioned accommodation structure 4 integral body tilt towards the paper supply direction.This be for the supply that makes developing-out paper 3 more smooth.But if leaning angle is excessive, then center of gravity moves on to the leading section of developing-out paper 3, can cause the problem of once supplying with several developing-out papers 3.Therefore, according to experimental result, the inclination of accommodation structure 4 is set like this in the present embodiment: making the weight that acts on the developing-out paper 3 on paper feed roller 14 and the rearward end anvil roll 10 is 4: 3 ratio.
Paper-feeding mechanism 5 will be positioned in the developing-out paper 3 in the accommodation structure 4, supply with to recording device 34 one by one successively from undermost developing-out paper 3.That is, be provided in the gap portion between bottom log sheet guide member 6 front and the leading section log sheet guide member 8, paper feed roller 14 can be rotated to support on the bogie side frame 2 and with the bottom surface of developing-out paper 3 and contacts.Paper supply direction front side (right side of Fig. 1) at this paper feed roller 14 is extending paper supply guide member 15, the developing-out paper of supplying with from accommodation structure 4 by paper feed roller 14 3 to the paper supply direction guiding.
In paper supply the place ahead of paper supply guide member 15, setting the driven voller 17 that transports roller 16 and external and driven rotation with it.Developing-out paper 3 is transported roller 16 and driven voller 17 by these and is seizing on both sides by the arms and transport.Distance from the S. A. 14a of paper feed roller 14 to the S. A. 16a that transports roller 16, the length of the developing-out paper of supplying with than paper feed roller 14 3 is short, as described later, with mono-CD-ROM drive motor 22, developing-out paper 3 is moved to from paper feed roller 14 transport roller 16.
In the place ahead of transporting of transporting roller 16, setting with developing-out paper 3 toward recording devices 34 guidings transport guide member 18, in this place ahead of transporting of transporting guide member 18, setting the feeding-in roll 19 in the recording device 34.By the developing-out paper 3 that transports guide member 18 guiding, sent into recording portion in the recording device 34 by this feeding-in roll 19.
In the position, front of transporting roller 16 and driven voller 17, setting the 1st feed in sensor 20a, in the position, front of feeding-in roll 19, setting the 2nd feed in sensor 20b.The 1st feed in sensor 20a and the 2nd feed in sensor 20b detect developing-out paper 3 respectively and pass through the desired location.In the present embodiment, the elastic force that does not show spring with figure pushes away the 1st feed in sensor 20a and the 2nd feed in sensor 20b toward the top, makes it from paper supply guide member 15 or to transport guide member 18 outstanding slightly.Like this, when developing-out paper 3 by the 1st feed in sensor 20a and the 2nd feed in sensor 20b above the time, resist above-mentioned elastic force and make each sensor 20a, 20b move and detect passing through of developing-out paper 3 downwards.
Also can utilize reflection of light speed etc. to make the 1st feed in sensor 20a and the 2nd feed in sensor 20b detect passing through of developing-out paper 3.In addition, paper feed roller 14, transport roller 16 and feeding-in roll 19, utilize friction force that developing-out paper 3 is supplied with toward the paper supply directions, so, adopt High molecular material such as rubber to make, so that improve the friction force with developing-out paper 3.
In the end of the S. A. 14a of paper feed roller 14, with power transmission tooth wheels 21, connecting stepper motor 22 as CD-ROM drive motor by the paper supply that constitutes by plurality of gears.On the other hand, in the end of the S. A. 16a that transports roller 16, with power transmission tooth wheels 23, connecting a stepper motor 22 identical with paper feed roller 14 by transporting of constituting by plurality of gears.That is, above-mentioned paper feed roller 14 and transport roller 16, respectively by paper supply with power transmission tooth wheels 21 or transport usefulness power transmission tooth wheels 23 by same stepper motor 22 driven in rotation.
Paper supply power transmission tooth wheels 21, by being entrenched in driven wheel 24 on the motor drive shaft 22a, just changeing and reverse with engaging and disengaging gear 25, paper supply with center tooth wheels 26 be entrenched in paper supply gear 27 on the S. A. 14a of paper feed roller 14, the propulsive effort of stepper motor 22 is passed to paper feed roller 14.On the other hand, transport with power transmission tooth wheels 23, by above-mentioned driven wheel 24, just change and reverse with engaging and disengaging gear 25, transport with center tooth wheels 28 and be entrenched in and transport gear 29 on the S. A. 16a that transports roller 16, the propulsive effort of stepper motor 22 passed to transport roller 16.
Just changeing and reversing, constituting by the clutch plate 32 of the 1st clutch gear the 30, the 2nd clutch gear 31 and two bolsters that are connected this gear with engaging and disengaging gear 25.The 1st clutch gear 30 can be rotated to support on the bogie side frame 2, and meshes with driven wheel 24.The 2nd clutch gear 31 can move freely, and its bolster 31a is not fixed on the bogie side frame 2.But, the 2nd clutch gear 31 and 30 engagements of the 1st clutch gear, connect two bolster 30a, 31a by clutch plate 32, and, on the bolster 31a of the 2nd clutch gear 31, coil spring (figure does not show) in the trip embedding, and the side of these helical spring both ends and the 2nd clutch gear 31 and the side of clutch plate 32 join, and makes in generation friction between the two.Therefore, the 2nd clutch gear 31 is swung towards its hand of rotation along with the rotation of the 1st clutch gear 30.
More particularly, when driven wheel 24 was just changeing (right-hand revolution among Fig. 1), the 1st clutch gear 30 conter clockwises were to rotation, and with its servo-actuated ground, the 2nd clutch gear 31 moves and meshes with center tooth wheels 26 with paper supply towards anticlockwise direction.When driven wheel 24 reversed (anticlockwise direction rotation among Fig. 1), the 1st clutch gear 30 was to right-hand revolution, with its servo-actuated ground, the 2nd clutch gear 31 move toward the clockwise direction and with transport with 28 engagements of center tooth wheels.Therefore, in the time of driving paper feed roller 14 drivings, stepper motor 22 is just being changeed; Drive when transporting roller 16 rotations, stepper motor 22 is reversed.
The switching of just changeing and reversing of this stepper motor 22 is by controlling with stepper motor 22 bonded assembly control mechanisms 33.Its switching time is according to the information of the passing through decision from the developing-out paper 3 of the 1st feed in sensor 20a.
That is, before the 1st feed in sensor 20a detected passing through of developing-out paper 3, stepper motor 22 was just changeing, and drove paper feed roller 14 rotations.Then, because of the rotation of this paper feed roller 14, developing-out paper 3 is supplied to, above the 1st feed in sensor 20a, when the 1st feed in sensor 20a detected passing through of developing-out paper 3 and information passed to control mechanism 33, this control mechanism 33 made its reverse after stepper motor 22 is driven with predetermined step number.Because the reverse of this stepper motor 22, just changeing the 2nd clutch gear 31 that reverses with engaging and disengaging gear 25 moves to clockwise direction, remove with paper supply with the engagement of center tooth wheels 26 when transporting with 28 engagements of center tooth wheels, transport roller 16 and rotate by transporting gear 29.Therefore, the rotation of paper feed roller 14 is stopped, and only transports roller 16 and transports developing-out paper 3.
Developing-out paper 3 is transported roller 16 on one side and transports by transporting guide member 18 guidings on one side, by above the 2nd feed in sensor 20b time, transmit by information to control mechanism 33 from the 2nd feed in sensor 20b, control mechanism 33 drives feeding-in roll 19, and developing-out paper 3 is sent in the recording device 34.
Below, with reference to diagram of circuit shown in Figure 2,33 pairs of paper feed rollers of above-mentioned control mechanism 14 and the driving method that transports roller 16 are described.
Among Fig. 2, when paper feed begins paper supply, enter step ST1, stepper motor 22 drives towards positive veer.Because the just commentaries on classics of this stepper motor, above-mentioned just the commentaries on classics reversed engaging and disengaging gear 25 and just is switched to and changes one's position, and the 2nd clutch gear 31 and paper supply are with 26 engagements of center tooth wheels, simultaneously, because paper supply is with the rotation of center tooth wheels 26 and paper supply gear 27, paper feed roller 14 right-hand revolution in Fig. 1.
Then, at step ST2, stepper motor 22 is just changeing when driving for 150 steps, enters step ST3, judge the 1st feed in sensor 20a whether because of developing-out paper 3 pass through connect.This step ST3 be judged as "Yes" the time, enter step ST4, during for "No", enter step ST5.
When entering step ST4, that is, the 1st feed in sensor 20a is when connecting, and stepper motor 22 is just changeing and drove for 80 steps, supplies with developing-out paper 3, the leading section of developing-out paper 3 with transport roller 16 and join.At this moment, the distance from the S. A. 14a of paper feed roller 14 to the S. A. 16a that transports roller 16, shorter than the length of 14 developing-out papers 3 that can supply with of paper feed roller, so, promptly use mono-CD-ROM drive motor 22, also developing-out paper can be moved to from paper feed roller 14 and transport roller 16.
On the other hand, when entering step ST5, that is, when the 1st feed in sensor 20a is not connection, judge whether stepper motor 22 rotated for 2000 steps.
This 2000 step is to make developing-out paper 3 move to the required step number of the 1st feed in sensor 20a from the positive turn-off beginning of stepper motor 22, if non-slip between paper feed roller 14 and the developing-out paper 3, then regular step number was 1000 steps.That is to say that stepper motor 22 is with 2 times of regular step number i.e. above drivings of 2000 steps, and if the 1st feed in sensor 20a when connecting, then should consider to have taken place fault.Therefore, at step ST5, when "Yes", promptly stepper motor 22 drove for 2000 steps when above, entered step ST6, carried out fault handling.When being "No", promptly stepper motor 22 did not drive for 2000 steps when above, returned step ST2, stepper motor is just being changeed drove for 150 steps.At this moment, before the rotation of 150 steps drives, when the 1st feed in sensor 20a is connection, enter step ST4.
Then, at step ST4, make stepper motor 22 just change for 80 steps after, enter step ST7, to transport roller 16 and stepper motor 22 reversed drive in order to drive.The reverse of this stepper motor 22 drives, make that just changeing reverse engaging and disengaging gear 25 switches to the reverse side, the 2nd clutch gear 31 with transport with 28 engagements of center tooth wheels, transport roller 16 and transport with the center tooth wheels 28 and the rotation of transporting gear 29 by these, begin right-hand revolution towards Fig. 1.
After the reverse of stepper motor 22 drives beginning in step ST7, enter step ST8, stepper motor 22 reverses and drove for 150 steps, enters step ST9.
At step ST9, judge whether the 2nd feed in sensor 20b is connection, when "Yes", enters step ST10, make 80 steps of stepper motor 22 rotation, after being provided in feeding-in roll 19 in the recording device 34 and joining, the supply of this developing-out paper 3 finishes.Then, feeding-in roll 19 is driven, and the operation of recording of recording device 34 begins.When being "No", when promptly the 2nd feed in sensor 20b is not for connection, enter step ST11, judge whether stepper motor 22 drove for 2000 steps, during for "Yes", entered step ST12, carried out fault handling.During for "No", return step ST8, make stepper motor 22 reverse for 150 steps once more.Reverse in the way at it, when the 2nd feed in sensor 20b is connection, enter next step ST9.
The driving method of above-mentioned control mechanism 33, available mono-stepper motor 22 drive paper feed roller 14 and transport roller 16 rotations.
Below, 33 pairs of paper feed rollers of control mechanism 14 and the method for control speed that transports roller 16 are described.
In the present embodiment, in order to improve between developing-out paper 3 and the paper feed roller 14, and developing-out paper 3 and transport friction force between the roller 16, the rotative speed of stepper motor 22 is temporarily lowered.That is, in each step of the driving method of stepper motor 22 shown in Figure 2,, as illustrated in fig. 3, stepper motor 22 is alternately switched to high speed revolution and low speed rotation at step ST2 and step ST8.
Below, the principle that concerns between friction force and the rotative speed is described with reference to Fig. 4.
Suppose, orlop developing-out paper 3 is μ 1 with the friction coefficient of the 2nd developing-out paper 3 reciprocal, paper feed roller 14 (or transporting roller 16) is μ 2 with the friction coefficient of developing-out paper 3, the transport force of developing-out paper 3 is in the torque of F, stepper motor 22, torque when the torque during high speed revolution is T1, low speed rotation is T2, torque based on the paper feed roller 14 (or transporting roller 16) of this torque is T3, the radius of paper feed roller 14 (or transporting roller 16) is r, is P with respect to the crimp force of the developing-out paper 3 of paper feed roller 14 (or transporting roller 16).In addition, μ 2>μ 1, according to the characteristic of stepper motor 22, T2>T1.
According to above prerequisite, the shipping conditions of developing-out paper 3 is F>P μ 1, in addition, transport force F at this moment has the relation of F=T3/r.
Therefore, paper feed roller 14 or to transport the torque T3 of roller 16 big more, the transport force F of developing-out paper 3 and P μ 1Difference big more, transport force increases.For the torque that increases this paper feed roller 14 or transport roller 16, as long as increase the torque of stepper motor 22.The stepper motor low speed rotation can be realized that this rotating speed increases.
According to this principle, in the present embodiment, when paper feed roller 14 is supplied with developing-out papers 3 and when transporting roller 16 and transport developing-out paper 3, after making stepper motor 22 at high speeds drive predetermined step number, temporarily switch to low speed, increase paper feed roller 14 and the torque T3 that transports roller 16, increase friction force, that is, increase transport force F, to supply with developing-out paper 3 effectively.Then, return high speed revolution again, continue the supply of developing-out paper 3 and transport.
In the method for control speed of the stepper motor 22 that above-mentioned control mechanism 33 carries out, be alternately to switch high speed revolution and low speed rotation, just be not limited thereto.For example, when paper feed roller 14 and transport roller 16 and developing-out paper 3 between produce when skidding, also can make paper feed roller 14 and transport roller 16 temporarily to stop, friction force is transformed to friction of rest from friction of motion, increase the transport force of developing-out paper 3 with this.In addition, also can at certain intervals stepper motor 22 alternately be switched to slew mode and halted state.
Friction of motion described here is the resistance when instigating object of which movement, and described friction of rest is meant the resistance when object is about to setting in motion, and friction of rest is bigger than friction of motion.
In addition, in the present embodiment, in order to supply with and transport developing-out paper 3 one by one, in the supply of developing-out paper 3 with transport in the way, be conceived to increase and decrease off and on the friction drag this point, also paper feed roller 14 alternately can be formed the different face of surface roughness with the outer peripheral face that transports roller 16 at hand of rotation.With such paper feed roller 14 with transport roller 16,, also can increase the friction force in the paper supply way even the rotative speed that control mechanism 33 does not make paper feed roller 14 or transports roller 16 has special variation.
Below, the effect of paper feed of the present invention is described.
Paper supply in the present embodiment is that the instruction by control mechanism 33 begins.According to the instruction of control mechanism 33, stepper motor 22 beginning is just being changeed when driving, just changeing to reverse engaging and disengaging gear 25 and move by driven wheel 24 anticlockwise direction in Fig. 1, with paper supply with 26 engagements of center tooth wheels.The propulsive effort of stepper motor 22 is transmitted with center tooth wheels 26 successively by these paper supplies, when 27 rotations of paper supply gear, is bearing in the right-hand revolution of coaxial paper feed roller 14 towards Fig. 1 with it.Paper feed roller 14 moves developing-out paper 3 with the friction force of orlop developing-out paper 3 toward the paper supply direction.At this moment, the leading section of orlop developing-out paper 3 is separated with other developing-out paper 3 by the burbling area 9 that is formed on leading section log sheet guide member 18 lower ends, by bottom log sheet guide member 6 and 7 guidings of sidepiece log sheet guide member, supplies with one by one.
When paper supply, be provided in the rearward end anvil roll 10 of bottom log sheet guide member 6 back square ends, the rear end side bottom surface of the developing-out paper 3 more than the 2nd reciprocal is being supported with lifting, so, orlop developing-out paper 3 reduces with the friction force of the 2nd developing-out paper 3 reciprocal, can prevent that orlop developing-out paper 3 and the developing-out paper 3 of inverse more than the 2nd are sent together overlappingly.
From stacked developing-out paper 3 tops pushing developing-out paper 3, even the number of developing-out paper 3 reduces, even during only remaining last developing-out paper 3, this developing-out paper 3 also is urged on paper feed roller 14 pushing roller 11 by its deadweight, produces friction force and can be supplied to.
Developing-out paper 3 by 15 guidings of paper supply guide member, is supplied with towards transporting roller 16 after being supplied with from bottom log sheet guide member 6 by paper feed roller 14.Be provided in the 1st feed in sensor 20a that transports roller 16 front sides, when detecting the passing through of developing-out paper 3, this information passed to control 33.Receive the control mechanism 33 of this information, make stepper motor 80 steps of 22 rotations, make developing-out paper 3 and transport roller 16 and join.
Then, control mechanism 33 reverses stepper motor 22, makes just to change to reverse engaging and disengaging gear 25 clockwise direction in Fig. 1 and move, and transports with 28 engagements of center tooth wheels.Like this, transport gear 29, make and transport gear 29 with this and be bearing in coaxial roller 16 right-hand revolution in Fig. 1 that transports by transporting propulsive effort to be passed to center tooth wheels 28.Along with this transports the rotation of roller 16, driven voller 17 also rotates, and developing-out paper 3 is being seized on both sides by the arms by them and transported.
This developing-out paper 3 is guided by being provided in the guide member 18 that transports that transports the place ahead that transports roller 16, direction towards recording device 34 is advanced, when being transported to feeding-in roll 19 fronts in the recording device 34, the 2nd feed in sensor 20b detects it, and it is passed to control mechanism 33 by information.This control mechanism 33 receives this by after the information, makes stepper motor 22 reverse for 80 steps, and developing-out paper 3 and feeding-in roll 19 are joined.
After above-mentioned joining, the action of recording device 34 opening entries.Like this, the supply of a developing-out paper 3 and transport end, when then carrying out the supply of next developing-out paper 3, control mechanism 33 makes stepper motor 22 just change again, drives paper feed roller 14 rotations.
Therefore, according to embodiments of the invention since pushing roller 11 by deadweight from top pushing stacked developing-out paper 3, so, can supply with developing-out paper 3 effectively until last.Simultaneously, pushing roller 11 can suppress the friction with the superiors developing-out paper 3, prevents this developing-out paper 3 damages.
In addition, though paper feed roller 14 or transport roller 16 and developing-out paper 3 between produce and skid because control mechanism 33 can make paper feed roller 14 and transport roller 16 low speed rotation or stop, increase friction force with this, thereby increase transport force, so, can eliminate slipping state immediately, supply with, transport developing-out paper 3 effectively.
The invention is not restricted to the embodiments described, can do various changes as required.
For example, in the present embodiment,, describe with developing-out paper 3, but be not limited to this, also be applicable to common paper, OHP paper, postcard, ground paper etc. as log sheet.
As mentioned above, according to paper feed of the present invention, can be suppressed at paper feed roller or transport roller and log sheet between produce and skid, can effectively log sheet be supplied with one by one and transport.
