Abstract

PURPOSE: To surely prevent locking of a shredding part of a paper feeder of a shredder by feeding-in of a paper bundle of a thickness exceeding a shredding capacity without lowering paper transporting efficiency. CONSTITUTION: This paper feeder has a front paper feed roller 20 on the font end side of a stage 11 to be paced with paper and a rear paper feed roller 21 on the rear end side. The paper feeder is provided with a paper thickness detecting means 40 for detecting the thickness of the paper bundle delivered by the front and rear paper feed rollers 20, 21 and a paper width detecting means 19 for detecting the paper width of the paper bundle. The shredding sectional area of the paper bundle is determined by a calculating means from the width of the paper bundle detected by this paper width detecting means 19 and the thickness of the paper bundle detected by the paper thickness detecting means 40 at the time of paper feeding. The driving of the second roller driving means E of the rear paper feed roller 21 is controlled in speed and the rotating speed of the rear paper feed roller 21 is controlled according to the shredding sectional area determined in such a manner, by which the thickness of the paper bundle is adjusted.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention can be applied to a shredder for shredding paper such as discarded documents with a cutter in a shredding section.
More specifically, the present invention relates to a paper feeding device that is used by being attached to the shredder and that feeds paper to the shredder.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in this type of paper feeder, generally,
It is more efficient than sending the sheets one by one, so multiple sheets are stacked and sent to the shredder. However, in the case of the overlap feeding, when the sheets are fed in a bundle of sheets having a thickness exceeding the shredding capacity of the shredding portion, the shredding portion may be locked by the sheet bundle.

Therefore, a conventional paper feeding device is provided with a paper thickness detecting means for detecting the thickness of the fed paper bundle, and the paper thickness detecting means confirms that the thickness of the paper bundle is not less than a certain value. In some cases, when it is detected, a warning device is activated to give a warning, or the drive of the paper feeding motor is automatically stopped.

However, if the drive of the paper feed motor is automatically stopped, the shredding work is interrupted halfway, which is inconvenient, and the paper feed motor must be restarted to restart the work. It must be troublesome. Even when a warning is given, the paper feeding must be stopped immediately after the warning, which is troublesome, and similarly, the shredding processing work is interrupted, which is inconvenient.

Therefore, when the applicant detects that the thickness of the sheet bundle is more than a certain value by the sheet thickness detecting means, the sheet conveying is continued as it is, while the conveying amount is limited to reduce the shredding ability. A paper feeding device that prevents a paper bundle having an excessive thickness from being fed to the shredder has already been proposed.

However, since the shredding capacity of the shredding portion corresponds to the shredding cross-sectional area (thickness of paper stack × width) of the paper stack to be shredded by the cutter, it is conventionally required. As described above, merely adjusting the thickness of the sheet bundle is not sufficient to prevent the lock of the shredded portion due to the feeding of the sheet bundle having the paper amount exceeding the shredding ability.
