It does not become larger than the suction pressure inside the chamber when it is pressed.
- the suction nozzle 307 is made of a flexible member that can follow the deformation of the sheet to be sucked, such as a rubber pad, at the suction tip, whereas the movable skirt 306 has a tip made of a rubber pad or the like. This is because it is made up of a member that has little follow-up to sheet deformation. Further, a slight gap is provided between the movable skirt 306 and the skirt receiving portion 305 to reduce the suction pressure inside the chamber of the movable skirt 306.
- the suction section is a position where the suction nozzle 307 does not contact the first sheet and the movable skirt 306 contacts. Just stop. Therefore, if the movable range of the movable skirt 306 is sufficiently increased with respect to the booklet thickness, the control of the mechanism accuracy and the proximity distance can be simplified, leading to a reduction in apparatus cost. Further, since the same operation may be performed even if the booklet thickness is different, it is not necessary to adjust the height of the booklet thickness for each page, and adsorption and separation can be performed by a simple mechanism.
- FIGS. 6A to 6G show the operation for the passbook cover page, that is, the first page of the passbook.
- a bar code indicating the booklet size (the difference between the closed size and the open size) page number (usually the upper left of the passbook page) is selected and executed depending on whether it is a passbook cover page or a passbook intermediate page.
