PRINTING DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18533385 titled 'PRINTING DEVICE
The abstract describes a guide portion in a device that processes recording paper. The first guide portion guides the uncut portion of the paper after it is fed in a certain direction by a feed roller, while the second guide portion guides the cut portion of the paper in the same direction after it is cut by a cutter. The second guide portion is positioned below the first guide portion.
- The device includes a first guide portion for uncut paper and a second guide portion for cut paper.
- The first guide portion guides the uncut portion of the paper after it is fed by a feed roller.
- The second guide portion guides the cut portion of the paper after it is cut by a cutter.
- The second guide portion is positioned below the first guide portion in the -Z direction.
Potential Applications: - Printing and copying machines - Packaging and labeling equipment - Paper cutting and processing devices
Problems Solved: - Ensures smooth movement of both uncut and cut paper - Prevents jams and misalignment during paper processing
Benefits: - Improved efficiency in paper processing - Reduced downtime due to paper jams - Enhanced overall performance of the device
Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Paper Processing Guide System for Printing Machines" This technology can be used in various commercial settings such as printing companies, packaging facilities, and office environments. It can improve the productivity and reliability of paper processing equipment, leading to cost savings and better output quality.
Prior Art: Prior art related to this technology may include patents or research papers on paper processing devices, feed mechanisms, and cutting systems. Researchers can explore IPC codes such as B65H for paper handling and CPC codes like B65H2201 for paper guides.
Frequently Updated Research: Researchers in the field of paper processing equipment may be conducting studies on improving guide systems, feed mechanisms, and cutting technologies. Stay updated on the latest advancements in these areas to enhance the performance of paper processing devices.
Questions about Paper Processing Guide System: 1. How does the positioning of the second guide portion improve paper processing efficiency? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this guide system in different types of paper processing equipment?
Original Abstract Submitted
A guide portion includes a first guide portion through which an uncut portion passes when recording paper is fed in a +Y direction by a feed roller after the recording paper is cut by a cutter, and a second guide portion through which a cut portion passes when the recording paper is fed in the +Y direction by the feed roller after the recording paper is cut by the cutter, and the second guide portion is positioned in the −Z direction with respect to the first guide portion.
