Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to a device for preventing document entanglement in a facsimile machine.

Recently, various types of facsimile machines have been developed and are in use, but among these types of facsimile machines, there is a possibility that the document fed out from the document feedout port may be accidentally caught in the document insertion port. If you need to use a certain document more than once, the document fed out from the document feedout port will inevitably be damaged if left as it is due to the unwinding caused by the feed roller built into the facsimile machine. It had the fatal drawback of getting caught in the insertion slot.

Conventionally, in order to prevent such documents from getting caught in the original document, it was necessary to manually guide the document fed out from the document feeding port so that it would not be accidentally caught in the document insertion port.

This invention eliminates these conventional inconveniences and makes it possible to prevent documents from getting entangled without the need for human intervention, and also displays information such as the name and telephone number of the facsimile recipient in an easily visible position above the facsimile machine. Its purpose is to display columns, advertising phrases, and various memorandums, etc., and its configuration will be explained with reference to the drawings as follows.

This invention is based on a type of facsimile machine 4 in which there is a possibility that a document 2 fed out from the document feedout port 1 may be accidentally caught in the document insertion port 3. 4, an upper end 6 is located above the original document feeding port 1, and a document entrapment prevention plate/indication board 7 having an appropriate slope from the lower end 5 to the upper end 6 is provided. A pair of front protrusions 8, 8 are provided at both left and right ends of the lower end portion 5 of the document entrainment prevention plate/display board 7, which abut against both left and right sides of the facsimile machine 4, and the document entrainment prevention plate A pair of support plates 9, 9 are provided extending from both left and right ends of the upper end 6 of the display board 7 to the upper surface of the facsimile machine 4 behind the document feeding port 1, and the lower ends 10 of the support plates 9, 9 , 10 is provided with a pair of rear protrusions 11, 11 at both left and right ends of the facsimile machine 4, which abut against both left and right side surfaces of the facsimile machine 4.

In the above configuration, the document entrainment prevention plate/display plate 7
can be transparent or translucent.

In this case, the state of the document 2 fed out from the document feeding port 1 can be observed through the document entrapment prevention plate and display board 7, so that the document can be processed more safely and reliably. It is convenient to be able to do so.

In the above configuration, the document entrainment prevention board/display board 7 may have a curved surface with an inclined surface as shown in the drawing, or may have any combination of a curved surface and a flat surface or a combination of two flat surfaces. But that's fine.

In order to install the original document entrainment prevention device in the facsimile machine of this invention on the upper part of the facsimile machine 4, the lower end 5 of the document entrainment prevention plate/display plate 7 must be placed on the upper surface of the facsimile machine 4 in front of the document feeding port 1. The inner surfaces of the pair of front projecting pieces 8, 8 are in contact with both left and right side surfaces of the facsimile machine 4, and the lower ends 10, 10 of the pair of support plates 9, 9 are placed on the facsimile machine 4 at the rear of the document feeding port 1. It is sufficient that the facsimile machine 4 is placed on the top surface of the facsimile machine 4 so that the inner surfaces of the pair of rear protrusions 11, 11 are brought into contact with both left and right side surfaces of the facsimile machine 4.

After installing the document entrainment prevention device on the top of the facsimile machine 4, the facsimile machine 4
When the transmission operation is performed, the original 2 fed out from the original feeding port 1 has a curl, and the original 2, which conventionally was fed forward and downward and inevitably got caught in the original insertion slot 3, is The original entrainment prevention plate/display plate 7 having an inclined surface of the original entrainment prevention device prevents the original from being entrained into the original insertion slot 3 and at the same time guides the original to the rear.

Next, on the surface of the document entrainment prevention plate/display board 7 having an inclined surface of the document entrainment prevention device, for example, a column list such as the name and telephone number of the facsimile destination, advertising phrases, and various memorandums, etc. are written. Can be displayed.

As explained above, according to the document entrainment prevention device in the facsimile machine of this invention, the document entrainment prevention plate/indication board 7 prevents the document feeding port 1
It is possible to reliably prevent the curled original 2 that has been fed out further from being caught in the original insertion slot 3.

Next, various displays can be displayed on the document entrainment prevention board/display board 7, and it is convenient to display such displays. It is easy to see due to its shape and location.
