PRINTING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240327153 titled 'PRINTING APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation: When a user opens an opening/closing portion to access the inside of a housing, a series of mechanisms are activated to switch a driven roller from a nip state to a non-nip state.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Displacement of a shaft member in the +z direction by a biasing force of a spring
- Movement of a lever member in the +z direction
- Rotation of a rotation shaft in the +θ direction
- Rotation of a cam in the +θ direction
- Pressing of a cam reception portion of an arm unit main body in the -x direction
- Rotation of the arm unit main body in the -θ direction
- Movement of a driven roller in the +z direction
Potential Applications: This technology can be applied in various industries where precise control of roller mechanisms is required, such as in printing, packaging, and conveyor systems.
Problems Solved: This technology addresses the need for efficient switching between nip and non-nip states in roller mechanisms, improving overall system performance and reliability.
Benefits:
- Enhanced control over roller mechanisms
- Smooth transition between nip and non-nip states
- Increased system efficiency and reliability
Commercial Applications: Potential commercial applications of this technology include printing presses, packaging machines, conveyor systems, and other industrial equipment requiring precise roller control.
Questions about Roller Mechanism Technology: 1. How does the biasing force of the spring impact the displacement of the shaft member? 2. What are the key advantages of switching the driven roller from a nip state to a non-nip state in industrial applications?
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on the latest advancements in roller mechanism technology to ensure optimal performance and efficiency in industrial applications.
Original Abstract Submitted
when a user opens an opening/closing portion for accessing an inside of a housing, a shaft member is displaced in a +z direction by a biasing force of a spring, and moves a lever member in the +z direction. a rotation shaft rotates in a +� direction along with displacement of the shaft member in the +z direction. as a result, a cam rotates in the +� direction together with the rotation shaft, and presses, by a projection portion, a cam reception portion of an arm unit main body in a −x direction against the biasing force of the spring. due to this, the cam rotates the arm unit main body in a −� direction. then, a driven roller moves the +z direction along with rotation of the arm unit main body in the −� direction, and is switched from a nip state to a non-nip state.
