Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide an electronic apparatus which makes a supplying and feeding mechanism have general-purpose properties and is simple, inexpensive and easy to handle, by a construction wherein a slanted outside surface of an outer casing is made to be a guide surface for a manually inserted recording medium, in a mechanism for supplying a loaded recording medium and receiving a read or recorded medium. CONSTITUTION:The outer casing 9 for the recording medium comprises medium casings 10, 11, motor-driven supplying rollers 12, 13, guide plates 14, 15 and a medium single supplying slanted surface 9a, and is fitted to, for example, an electronic typewriter 1 at curved parts 8b of arms 8a as one body with a turnable receiving plate 19 for the read or recorded medium. The slanted surface 9a of the outer casing 9 functions also as a guide surface for manual insertion of a single medium, and it is also enabled to easily take out a stagnating medium by turning the receiving plate 19 to the operator's side. Accordingly, the mechanism can be applied to various kinds of apparatuses, namely, it has general-purpose properties, and is simple, inexpensive and convenient to handle.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (branch) The present invention is a wordpress processor, an electronic typewriter.

Regarding facsimile machines and other electronic devices, this technology specifically relates to the simplification, cost reduction, and improvement of reliability of a recording medium feeding mechanism configured to load multiple recording media and eject them one after another.0 (Conventional) Conventionally, this kind of technology In devices, individual gtt arrangement of dedicated parts has been common, which inevitably leads to complexity, large size, and reduced reliability of the device. (Objective) The present invention aims to solve the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks. purpose.

(Embodiment) The figures show an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 1 is a view before the recording medium feeding mechanism is loaded into the main body of, for example, an electronic typewriter, and FIG. 2 is a view after it is loaded. , Figures 3 and 4 are operation explanatory diagrams. , a laser head or other recording head, or a reading head for reading the contents of a recording medium.

5 is a group of keys for inputting letters, numbers, etc., and 6 is a display section thereof. 7 is a guide plate for the recording medium, 2a and 2'b are pinch rollers, and 1a is an opening for receiving the arm 8a of the recording medium feeding mechanism 8. The curved portion 8b of the arm 8a is fitted onto the shaft 6 and loaded as shown in FIG. The recording medium feeding mechanism 8 is loaded with a case 10.11 in which the recording medium P is stored, as shown.

12.13 is a feeding roller, 14, 15.1<S guide plate for the recording medium P, 17.18 is a discharge roller for the recording medium P,
19 is a receiving plate for the recording medium P to be ejected. Uke is board 1
9 is exclusion IJ! It is allowed to tilt outward about the axis of lI2-217. The receiver is set so as to form a narrow path between the back surface 19b of the plate 19 and the inclined outer surface 9a of the outer case 9 of the feeder housing 8 toward the reading or recording section below, and is designed to allow the manual feed section for a specific recording medium. Configure. As shown in FIG. M3, the inclined outer surface 9a of the outer case 9 functions as a guide surface for the manually inserted recording medium. At this time, the back surface 19t of the receiving plate 19 also functions as a guide surface for the manually fed recording medium.Furthermore, the inclined inner surface 9b of the outer case 9 functions as a guide surface for the recording medium inside the storage case 10. Case 10.
It has a guiding function for both recording media. That is, the first surface 14& is for guiding the recording medium of the storage case 10, and the second surface 14& is for guiding the recording medium of the storage case 10.
The surface 141) is for guiding the recording medium of the storage case 11, and the 0 guide plate 15, which is set approximately parallel to the inner surface 9b of the inclined part, is dedicated to the storage case 11, and its M1 surface 15a and the back surface 19b of the receiving plate 19 A narrow path is set toward the reading or recording section.

The feed roller 12 or 13 is selectively rotated clockwise by a motor drive (not shown), and the recording medium is ideally fed to the reading or recording section in a nearly direct state.

In such a device, the so-called jam phenomenon in which the recording medium accumulates tends to occur near the end of the guide plate 14, 15. Therefore, if the receiving plate 19 is tilted outward as shown in FIG. 4, the hand can easily enter. Remaining recording media can be easily removed. Alternatively, the same effect can be achieved by constructing the receiving plate 19 so that it can be detached and removed, as long as it is movable from the position in the normal use state.

In addition, the above-mentioned term ``recording medium'' includes an unrecorded state, for example, a blank sheet, a medium on which information has already been written by a recording head, another manuscript, a print medium, etc., in which the manuscript is sequentially read and stored by a reading head. It can be applied to various electronic devices.

FIG. 5 is an external view of the outer case 9 shown in FIG. 1. The outer case 9, which is integrally molded using glass technology, has an outer surface 9a and an inner surface 9b that are flat surfaces, and these surfaces are used to guide the medium. Since it is used as a surface, the structure is extremely simple, and it can be manufactured in a small size, light weight, and at low cost, which is extremely preferable.

Also this side 9a.

A lubricity increasing mechanism such as pasting a sheet with 9bK lubricity or adding unevenness, or adsorption prevention treatment may be applied. Mafc? ? Removal of the It retention medium can be carried out extremely smoothly, making it easy for even inexperienced users to solve problems, and greatly improving usability.
