L Drum drive gear Gear drive unit Main motor The paper pulling-in and registration mechanism consists of the pull-in roller gear (incorporated in the auto sheet feeder ASF), planetary gear system, paper feed solenoid, solenoid lever, clutch release lever, and registration sensor. (For the details about the sensor, refer to Subsection 3.2.3.) If the main motor rotates clockwise, the rotation is transmitted to the intermediate gear of the planetary gear system. As the intermediate gear rotates, the pull-in roller drive gear also rotates since the clutch gear is locked by the solenoid lever and the clutch release lever. Accordingly, the pull-in roller in the ASF rotates to pull in paper into the machine, a sheet at a time. If the paper feed solenoid is retracted and the clutch release lever is operated according to the cam profile of the pull-in roller drive gear so as to release the clutch gear, the clutch gear rotates and the pull-in roller drive gear does not rotate. This way, the clutch gear switches the transmission of the motor rotation to the pull-in roller drive gear on and off. The solenoid on/off timing and the clutch release lever timing allow this mechanism to pull in a sheet and register it against the registration roller. Paper feeding and eiectina mechanism If the main motor rotates clockwise, the rotation is transmitted via the gear train to the drum drive gear, heater roller drive gear, and paper ejection roller drive gear. After the paper passes through the heat-fixing process, it will be ejected onto the paper tray. If the leading edge of the paper pushes up the actuator of the paper ejection sensor, the photosensor becomes opened, signaling the start of paper ejection. If the trailing edge has passed through the sensor actuator, the sensor becomes closed, signaling the completion of paper ejection. Then, the main motor stops rotation. 3-7

Main
motor
The
paper
pulling
-in
and
registration
mechanism
consists
of
the
pull
-in
roller
gear
(incorporated
in
the
auto
sheet
feeder
ASF),
planetary
gear
system,
paper
feed
solenoid,
solenoid
lever,
clutch
release
lever,
and
registration
sensor.
(For
the
details
about
the
sensor,
refer
to
Subsection
3.2.3.)
If
the
main
motor
rotates
clockwise,
the
rotation
is
transmitted
to
the
intermediate
gear
of
the
planetary
gear
system.
As
the
intermediate
gear
rotates,
the
pull
-in
roller
drive
gear
also
rotates
since
the
clutch
gear
is
locked
by
the
solenoid
lever
and
the
clutch
release
lever.
Accordingly,
the
pull
-in
roller
in
the
ASF
rotates
to
pull
in
paper
into
the
machine,
a
sheet
at
a
time.
If
the
paper
feed
solenoid
is
retracted
and
the
clutch
release
lever
is
operated
according
to
the
cam
profile
of
the
pull
-in
roller
drive
gear
so
as
to
release
the
clutch
gear,
the
clutch
gear
rotates
and
the
pull
-in
roller
drive
gear
does
not
rotate.
This
way,
the
clutch
gear
switches
the
transmission
of
the
motor
rotation
to
the
pull
-in
roller
drive
gear
on
and
off.
The
solenoid
on/off
timing
and
the
clutch
release
lever
timing
allow
this
mechanism
to
pull
in
a
sheet
and
register
it
against
the
registration
roller.
Paper
feeding
and
eiectina
mechanism
If
the
main
motor
rotates
clockwise,
the
rotation
is
transmitted
via
the
gear
train
to
the
drum
drive
gear,
heater
roller
drive
gear,
and
paper
ejection
roller
drive
gear.
After
the
paper
passes
through
the
heat
-fixing
process,
it
will
be
ejected
onto
the
paper
tray.
If
the
leading
edge
of
the
paper
pushes
up
the
actuator
of
the
paper
ejection
sensor,
the
photosensor
becomes
opened,
signaling
the
start
of
paper
ejection.
If
the
trailing
edge
has
passed
through
the
sensor
actuator,
the
sensor
becomes
closed,
signaling
the
completion
of
paper
ejection.
Then,
the
main
motor
stops
rotation.
