RECORDING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240158192 titled 'RECORDING APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation
The recording apparatus described in the patent application includes components such as feed roller, conveyance roller, recording unit, reverse path, and control unit. The conveyance roller moves a sheet fed by the feed roller, while the recording unit performs recording on the sheet. The reverse path reverses the traveling direction of the sheet on which recording is performed, and the control unit ensures that a second sheet overlaps a first sheet during recording, with the traveling direction of both sheets reversed in the reverse path.
- Feed roller feeds sheets
- Conveyance roller moves sheets for recording
- Recording unit performs recording on sheets
- Reverse path reverses traveling direction of sheets
- Control unit manages overlapping and reversing of sheets

Original Abstract Submitted
a recording apparatus includes a feed roller, a conveyance roller, a recording unit, a reverse path, and a control unit. the conveyance roller conveys a sheet fed by the feed roller. the recording unit performs recording on the conveyed sheet. the reverse path reverses, in the reverse path, a traveling direction of the sheet on which the recording is performed. the control unit performs control so that a leading edge of a second sheet overlaps a first sheet on which recording is being performed by the recording unit. recording on the second sheet is to be performed by the recording unit following the recording on the first sheet. the control unit performs control to reverse the traveling direction of the first sheet and the traveling direction of the second sheet in the reverse path while maintaining an overlapping state of the first sheet and the second sheet.
