SHEET FEEDING DEVICE AND RECORDING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240190674 titled 'SHEET FEEDING DEVICE AND RECORDING APPARATUS
The patent application describes a sheet feeding device for feeding a sheet from a roll sheet, comprising a holder portion, a guide portion, a rear member, and a front member that are all interconnected to facilitate the feeding process.
- The holder portion supports the roll sheet around which the sheet is wound and allows for rotation.
- The guide portion directs the roll sheet towards the holder portion for feeding.
- The rear member is part of the guide portion and extends from the holder portion in a specific direction.
- The front member is connected to the rear member and can project from it in the same direction, being movable with respect to the rear member.
Potential Applications: - Printing industry for feeding paper in printers - Packaging industry for feeding packaging material - Manufacturing industry for continuous sheet feeding processes
Problems Solved: - Efficient feeding of sheets from a roll - Smooth transition of sheets without jams or interruptions
Benefits: - Increased productivity due to continuous feeding - Reduced downtime and maintenance costs - Improved accuracy and consistency in sheet feeding
Commercial Applications: The technology can be utilized in various industries such as printing, packaging, and manufacturing for efficient sheet feeding processes, leading to cost savings and improved productivity.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the front member facilitate the feeding process? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this sheet feeding device in different industries?
