Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a printer paper feed for facilitating paper feed and paper discharge processing work of a printer installed on a unified deep stand such as various monitoring rooms and control rooms. Regarding the device.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art First, in a conventional paper feeding setting means of a printer installed on a stand such as various monitoring rooms and control rooms,
When using a stand for a printer with a shallow depth of 70 cm to 80 cm provided with casters, the stand is moved by the casters to set the paper feed. Next, a general stand that is not dedicated to the printer, that is, the depth dimension is 1
When using a table with a deep depth of m to 1 m 20 cm,
Since peripheral devices such as a printer are laid out along the wall surfaces of the monitoring room and the control room, a maintenance space is provided in front of and behind the printer in the layout, and an operator sets the paper feed around the back surface of the printer.

[0003]

In the conventional paper feeding setting means of the printer, when the table for exclusive use of the printer is used, each table has a different color, shape, size, etc.
There is a problem that the aesthetics of various monitoring rooms and control rooms are not arranged, and they are aggregated. Next, when a general stand is used, the color, shape, size, etc. are unified, so the aesthetic appearance is adjusted, but maintenance space is required before and after the printer, and space efficiency deteriorates, and Since the table is deep, the printer position tends to be located at the rear of the table because of the relationship with peripheral devices, and it is not possible to set the paper feed from the front of the printer, and the paper is fed around the back of the printer. Therefore, there is a problem that it is necessary to set the sheet feeding device, the work is complicated, and sometimes a single worker cannot perform the sheet feeding work.

In consideration of the above points, the present invention is a printer paper feed which does not impair the aesthetics of various monitoring rooms, control rooms, etc., and allows one person to easily set the paper feed of the printer from the front of the printer. The purpose is to provide a device.

[0005]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a printer paper feeding apparatus of the present invention is provided with a paper feeding table provided below the front side of a table and a paper feeding table mounted on the paper feeding table. And a paper ejection table provided at the rear of the paper feeding table, a receiving table on which the printer is placed, and a position above the paper feeding table of the table, and the paper feeding on the paper feeding table is supplied to the printer. The paper feed port and the paper ejection port formed above the paper ejection table of the mounting table for introducing the paper ejected from the printer to the paper ejection table, and the paper ejection port provided on the table for guiding the receiving table back and forth. ， Move the cradle to the rear, open the rear of the paper feed port, move the cradle to the position where the printer is used and the cradle to the front, fully open the paper feed port, and set the paper feed to the printer And a sliding mechanism that moves to a state position.

[0006]

In the printer paper feeding apparatus of the present invention having the above-described structure, the paper feeding table is provided below the front side of the table and the paper discharging table is provided behind the paper feeding table. The table is moved to the position where the printer is used by moving the table backwards by the sliding mechanism provided on the table. The supplied and printed sheet is discharged from the printer to the sheet discharge tray through the sheet discharge port of the table, and the sheet discharge process can be performed from the front side below the table.

Further, since the cradle is moved forward by the sliding mechanism to fully open the paper feed port and move to the set position where the paper is set in the printer, the pedestal is fully opened from the front of the printer. The end of the paper feed on the paper feed tray is pulled up through the paper feed port, which makes it easy to set the paper feed of the printer. Therefore, regarding the shape of the stand and the arrangement of the printer,
Since a considerable degree of freedom is added, peripheral devices such as printers are laid out on a unified stand, and the aesthetics of various monitoring rooms and control rooms are not impaired.
