るようにした複写機の用紙検出装置。Means and Effects for Solving Problems: A detection window is provided on the paper feed cassette side to display the size of the paper stored in the paper feed cassette, and a detection window is provided on the copying machine body side to detect the size of the paper from the paper feed cassette detection window. 9. A paper detecting device for a copying machine capable of simultaneously detecting the paper size and the presence or absence of paper by providing a detection means for detecting the presence or absence of paper based on reflected light from the paper displayed.
実施例
この発明の一実施例を図面を参照して詳述すると、図に
おいて1は複写機本体で、内部に複数個の給紙カセット
2が装着できるようになっている。上記給紙カセット2

れた底板2αを有していて、この底板2α上に用紙3が
積層されていると共に、給紙カセット2の複写機本体1
挿入側端面には例えば2個の検出窓2h。Embodiment One embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In the drawing, reference numeral 1 denotes a main body of a copying machine, into which a plurality of paper feed cassettes 2 can be installed. Above paper feed cassette 2
has a bottom plate 2α on the inner bottom that is biased upward by a biasing means 5 such as a leaf spring, and sheets 3 are stacked on this bottom plate 2α, and the copying machine main body 1 of the paper feed cassette 2
For example, two detection windows 2h are provided on the insertion side end surface.
2Cが開口されている。これら検出窓2b、2cは個数
や間隔により給紙カセット2内に収容さ五た用紙3のサ
イズを表示するようになっている。2C is open. These detection windows 2b and 2c are adapted to display the size of the five sheets of paper 3 stored in the paper feed cassette 2 depending on the number and spacing thereof.
一方複写機本体1側には、上記給紙カセット2の検出窓
2b、 2cと対向する位置に検出手段4が設置されて
いる。上記検出手段4は発光素子4α及び受光素子4b
の対が、給紙カセット2の端面に沿って第3図に示すよ
うに顎数組並設されていて、検出窓2b、2cの位置に
より、反射光を検出する受光素子4bが変化するのを利
用して用紙サイズを検出すると共に、検出窓2b、 2
tyに表出する用紙3端部からの反射光から用紙3の有
無を検出するようになっている。On the other hand, on the copying machine main body 1 side, a detection means 4 is installed at a position facing the detection windows 2b, 2c of the paper feed cassette 2. The detection means 4 includes a light emitting element 4α and a light receiving element 4b.
Several sets of pairs are arranged in parallel along the end surface of the paper feed cassette 2 as shown in FIG. The paper size is detected using the detection windows 2b, 2.
The presence or absence of the paper 3 is detected from the reflected light from the edge of the paper 3 exposed at ty.
なお上記実施例では複写機本体1側の検出手段4を、給
紙カセット2の端面と対向する位置に設けたが、光ファ
イバなどを用いて検出窓2b。In the above embodiment, the detection means 4 on the copying machine main body 1 side is provided at a position facing the end surface of the paper feed cassette 2, but an optical fiber or the like is used to connect the detection means 4 to the detection window 2b.
2Cを遠隔で検出できるようにすれば、検出手段4は複
写機本体1内の任意な位置に設置できるものである。If 2C can be detected remotely, the detection means 4 can be installed at any position within the main body 1 of the copying machine.
発明の効果
この発明は以上詳述したように、複写機本体i側に設け
た検出手段4により給紙カセット2内に収容され要用紙
3のサイズと用紙3の有無が同時に検出できることから
、従来のように用紙3の有無を検出する検出手段を別に
設ける必要がない。これによって検出手段の構成が簡単
になるを共に、価格の低減も図れるようになる。Effects of the Invention As described in detail above, the present invention is capable of simultaneously detecting the size of the required paper 3 stored in the paper feed cassette 2 and the presence or absence of the paper 3 by means of the detection means 4 provided on the side of the main body i of the copying machine. There is no need to separately provide a detection means for detecting the presence or absence of paper 3 as in the case of FIG. This not only simplifies the configuration of the detection means but also reduces the cost.
