    Chapter 2   F-2-19 2.2.6 Basic Operation (Saddle Stitcher Unit) 0009-2542 <Receiving Sheets> The stitcher unit receives sheets from the finisher unit and outputs them inside the vertical path in vertical orientation. The vertical path, while sheets are being output, is configured by two paper deflecting plates. The position of the sheets being output is set by the paper positioning plate so that the center of the stack matches the stapling/folding position.
  • Page 49 Chapter 2 Direction of delivery Second sheet First sheet Paper positioning plate F-2-20 <Aligning the Sheets> The alignment plates operate to put the sheets in order each time a sheet of paper is output to the vertical path assembly. The alignment plates are mounted at the edge of the vertical path assembly. The alignment plates also operate after stapling to prepare the stack for delivery.

This point is where the center of the stack, i.e., stapling position, matches the height of the paper pushing plate and the paper folding roller nip. The stack is moved forward by operating the paper positioning plate.
  • Page 51 Chapter 2 Paper folding roller Paper pushing guide Paper positioning plate Guide plate F-2-23 <Folding/Delivering the Stack> The paper pushing plate pushes against the center of the stack to move it in the direction of the paper folding rollers. In response, the paper folding rollers pick the stack along its center and fold it in two. The paper folding rollers together with the delivery roller then move the stack along to output it on the delivery tray.

The crescent roller keeps rotating while sheets are being output, butting the leading edge of each sheet against the paper positioning plate, and ultimately, keeping the leading edge of the stack in order.

The upper tray is called escape tray, the middle tray is called tray 1, and the lower tray is called tray 2. The escape tray is fixed and tray 1 and tray 2 can move up and down independently. The escape tray has an escape tray full detector sensor (PI119).

    Chapter 2   24 VDC supplied through one power supply line is used to drive motors and solenoids. The 24 VDC power for solenoids is supplied from the finisher controller circuit PCB without passing through protection mechanisms such as microswitches. The 24 VDC for motors is not supplied if any of the two door switches of the saddle stitcher unit is open.
