- a door or closure member 54 supported on pivots 56 provides access to the drum structure 22 for placement of paper thereon.
- the rear edge of the door structure acts as a camming surface to effect pivoting of the lever arms 44 and when the door is raised to its open position.
- the arms 44 are provided with a rearwardly extending segment 62 which engaged by the rear edge 60. It will be appreciated that by virtue of the construction of the lever arms 44 and, the drum structure will be stopped and the gripper raised for insertion of a paper, when the gripper bar is at approximately top dead center thereby facilitating installation and removal of paper.
- the relationship of the lever arms 44 with the door structure 54 is such as to permit the door structure to be opened a substantial distance before interaction of the rear edge 60 and the rearwardly extending segments 62 takes place.
- the door structure which is mounted for rotation through an angle of approximately 90 can be rotated about 70 without effecting actuation of the gripper bar 38.
- a plurality of guide members are located about the drum periphery to maintain the paper or document in close proximity to the surface of the drum structure during operation.
- a plurality of ribs 64 are secured to a front door structure 66 pivotably supported by the frames 20 and 21.
- a plurality of ribs 68 are also provided as an integral part of the door structure 54 such that when the door structure is in its closed position a guide way is effected between the ribs 68 and a portion of the drum structure 22.
- a plurality of wiper bars 70 mounted by a means of a rod 72 serve the same purpose as ribs 64 and 68.
