Abstract

1352488 Feeding sheets INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORP 4 Oct 1972 [16 Dec 1971] 45662/72 Heading B8R A sheet feeding mechanism, e.g. in a photocopying machine comprises two pack holders 22, 24 for holding adjacent packs of sheets 34, 36 with the first sheets facing and separate from one another, and a sheet picker 58 between the packs and selectively engageable with one or the other to enable the first sheet to be fed from the selected pack. The picker is carried on a spring loaded arm 72 which is turned to place the picker into contact with the selected pack by Bowden cables operated by a selector 64 and is driven by a reversible motor (116) to move the first sheet past deflectors 54 or 55 to a drive roll 56, driven by the same motor (116) Fig. 4 (not shown), co-operating separator rolls 60, 61 preventing double feed. Contact of the leading edge of the sheet with a feeler causes a solenoid 66 or 67 to lift the picker from the pack. The drive roll 56 passes the sheet to rolls 96, 98 the roll 96 supporting an endless belt 100 which transports the sheet, in contact with a guide 106 to a gate 102 which is opened in timed sequence when the sheet is required in the copier. When the trailing end of the sheet passes a feeler (126 or 130) Fig. 8 (not shown) the solenoid circuit is broken and the picker moves back into contact with the pack, and the next sheet is moved forward until, before it reaches the drive roll 56 the trailing edge of the first sheet passes the feeler (124 or 128) (Fig. 8) which breaks the circuit of the motor 116 so that the drive roll 56, separator rolls 60, 61 and picker roll 58 stop, being restarted at the appropriate time in the copier cycle by cam (120, Fig. 9, not shown).
