Definitions
- the general inventive concept relates to office machines, such as a convergence machine and a facsimile, and more particularly, to a roller-load changing apparatus for an office machine, capable of preventing a jumping phenomenon of a document from occurring when the document is fed by a feed roller and then is discharged from a nip between the feed roller and a pinch roller supported by a resilient spring urging the document against the feed roller.
- office machines e.g., a facsimile, a convergence machine, etc.
- a scanning unit for scanning data recorded on a document
- a printer unit for printing the scanned data or other data received via a communication network or input from a computer onto a copy paper.
- the scanning unit is an essential component to transmit the data recorded on the document or output the data onto the copy paper.
- FIG. 1 shows a conventional scanning unit 10 applied to an office machine, such as a facsimile and a convergence machine.
- the scanning unit 10 includes an automatic document feeder (ADF) 13 located on an upper portion of an interior of the scanning unit for automatically feeding a document D, a scanner 18 for reading data from the document D fed by the ADF 13 , a white bar 18 ′ for bringing the document D into contact with the scanner 18 , and an ejection unit 19 for ejecting the document passing through the scanner 18 and the white bar 18 ′ out of the scanning unit 10 .
- ADF automatic document feeder
- the ADF 13 feeding the document D into the scanning unit 10 includes a frame 15 providing a document tray with the document D stacked thereon, a first document detecting sensor 1 having a first sensing lever 5 and a first optical sensor 3 for determining whether the document D is stacked, a pick-up roller 14 for picking up the document D according to an operation of the document detecting sensor 1 , a friction pad 16 in contact with the pick-up roller 14 for separating the document D into individual sheets by using a friction force, a second document detecting sensor 17 having a second sensing lever 23 and a second optical sensor 21 for sensing when the document is ready to be fed, and a feed roller 14 a for feeding the document D toward the scanner 18 in cooperation with a first pinch roller 14 b having a first shaft 14 d resiliently supported by a first resilient spring 14 c.
- Components of the ADF 13 such as the frame 15 , the pick-up roller 14 , and the feed roller 14 a, may be configured independent of a printing unit (not shown) printing and outputting the data onto the copy paper, as shown in FIG. 1 , or may be configured to be commonly used with the printing unit, according to specifications.
- the ejection unit 19 includes an ejection roller 19 a for ejecting the document D in cooperation with a second pinch roller 19 b having a second shaft 19 d supported by a second resilient spring 19 c.
- the feed roller 14 a of the ADF 13 is meshed with the first pinch roller 14 b having the first shaft 14 d supported by the first resilient spring 14 c.
- the first resilient spring 14 c is abruptly removed from the document D, and only a driving force of the feed roller 14 a is applied to the document D.
- Such a jumping phenomenon deteriorates a scan precision of the scanner 18 , as shown in FIG. 2 .
- the reason is that since a scan speed of the scanner 18 is set to scan the document D in line with a feed speed of the document, the scanner skips the scan for the document D by the jumped pitch amount JP.
- the scanner skips the scan for the document D by the jumped pitch amount JP.
- there is a problem of an image defect in which an image of the document D output by the printer unit is printed at an interval equal to the jumped pitch amount JP.

- the sensing boss 261 and the third optical sensor 263 of the position detecting sensor 260 are installed at the first end 213 of the load changing lever 211 , as described and shown in FIGS. 3-5 , they may be installed at another position to determine the stop time of the load control motor 240 at the vertical position and horizontal position of the cam 221 , for example, the second end 214 of the load changing lever 211 or cam 221 .
- the stop time of the load control motor 240 is detected by the position detecting sensor 260 installed at the frame and the load changing lever 211 , as described and shown in FIGS. 3-5 , the stop time of the load control motor 240 can also be determined by detecting a rotary angle or a rotating number of the load control motor 240 required to change the vertical position or the horizontal position of the cam 221 .
- the roller-load changing apparatus 200 of FIGS. 3-5 when the document D is fed by the feed roller 14 a of the ADF 13 and then is ejected from the nip between the feed roller 14 a and the first pinch roller 14 b, the resilient force of the first resilient spring 14 c acting upon the feed roller 14 a is gradually decreased, and the resilient force of the second resilient spring 19 c acting upon the ejection roller 19 a is gradually increased, thereby preventing the jumping phenomenon of the document D from occurring by abruptly eliminating the resilient force of the first resilient spring 14 c and applying only the driving force of the feed roller 14 a to the document D.
- roller-load changing apparatus 200 is applied to the scanning unit of the office machine, such as the convergence machine and the facsimile

- the document D is slid down by its weight to collide with the first sensing lever 5 of the document detecting sensor 1 , and thus moves along the first sensing lever 5 , thereby turning on the first optical sensor 3 of the first document detecting sensor 1 .
- a control unit drives a pick-up roller driving motor (not shown) in one direction to rotate the pick-up roller 14 .
- the pick-up roller 14 separates the document D into a single sheet by using the frictional force against the friction pad 16 , and the document D passes through the second document detecting sensor 17 , and is fed to the nip between the feed roller 14 a and the first pinch roller 14 b.

- the second sensing lever 23 of the second document detecting sensor 17 is inserted between the light emitting portion and the light receiving portion of the second optical sensor 21 to turn off the second optical sensor 21 .
- the control unit drives the driving motor of the ejection roller 19 a and drives the load control motor 240 in one direction, for example, a clockwise direction, at a desired speed.
- the driving force of the load control motor 240 is transmitted to the cam 221 through the motor gear 235 , the power transmitting gear 233 , and the cam gear 231 , such that the cam 221 starts moving from the vertical position as shown in FIG. 3 to the horizontal position as shown in FIG. 4 .
- the first end 213 of the load changing lever 211 is slowly moved down by the third resilient spring 251 of the cam assisting member 250 to gradually decompress the first resilient spring 14 c.
- the second end 214 of the load changing lever 211 is gradually moved up with respect to the hinge shaft 215 to gradually compress the second resilient spring 19 c.
- the first shaft 14 d of the pinch roller 14 b is gradually decompressed by the first resilient spring 14 c, while the second shaft 19 d of the second pinch roller 19 b is gradually compressed by the second resilient spring 19 c toward the ejection roller 19 a.
- a feed-in force to feed the document D is gradually moved toward the ejection roller 19 a.
- the trailing portion of the document D turns off the second optical sensor 21 and passes through the feed roller 14 a and the first pinch roller 14 b
- the feed-in force of the feed roller 14 a applied to the trailing portion of the document D and the resilient force of the first resilient spring 14 c are gradually decreased, and then are almost removed at that time where the document ejects from the nip between the feed roller 14 a and the first pinch roller 14 b.
- the trailing portion of the document D can pass through the nip between the feed roller 14 a and the first pinch roller 14 b without receiving the load due to the feed roller 14 a and the first pinch roller 14 b.
- the present general inventive concept can prevent the jumping phenomenon of the document D from occurring due to abruptly eliminating the resilient force of the first resilient spring 14 c and applying only the driving force of the feed roller 14 a to the document D, as a conventional developing unit 10 .
- the third optical sensor 263 outputs the OFF signal to the control unit, such that the control unit interrupts the power for the load control motor 240 to stop the load control motor 240 .
- the load changing lever 211 is completely located at the second load position, and the document D is ejected out of the scanner 18 by the ejection roller 19 a driven by the driving motor and the second pinch roller 19 b, with the scanner 18 reading the data from the document D.
- the control unit drives the load control motor 240 in the other direction, for example, a counterclockwise direction, at a desired speed to move the load changing lever 211 to the first load position that is the initial operation position.
- the cam 221 is moved from the horizontal position shown in FIG. 4 to the vertical position shown in FIG. 3 by the gear train 230 .
- the load control motor 240 is described to be rotated in the counterclockwise direction, the cam 221 may be moved in a clockwise direction, as the cam 221 moves to the horizontal position, since the cam 221 comprises the first and second semi-circular cam surfaces 222 and 223 symmetrical to each other
- the first end 213 of the load changing lever 211 is slowly moved up by the cam 221 to gradually compress the first resilient spring 14 c.
- the second end 214 of the load changing lever 211 is gradually moved downward with respect to the hinge shaft 215 to gradually decompress the second resilient spring 19 c.
- the third sensor 263 outputs an ON signal to the control unit, such that the control unit interrupts the power for the load control motor 240 to stop the load control motor 240 , thus placing in standby a scanning operation of a next document D.
- FIG. 6 is a schematic view depicting an operation of a roller-load changing apparatus 200 ′ according to another embodiment of the present general inventive concept, which is applied to a scanning unit 100 ′ of an office machine such as a convergence machine, a facsimile, and so forth.
- Components of the scanning unit 100 ′ are similar to those of the scanning unit 100 described and shown in FIGS. 3 to 5 , the detailed description of which will be omitted herein, except for the roller-load changing apparatus 200 ′.
- the roller-load changing apparatus 200 ′ includes a first resilient spring 14 c, a resilient-spring support 210 ′ to support the first resilient spring 14 c against the first shaft 14 d of the first pinch roller 14 b and moving the first resilient spring 14 c between a first load position where the first resilient spring 14 c is compressed to press the first pinch roller 14 b against a feed roller 14 a and a second load position where the resilient spring 14 b is decompressed to release the first pinch roller 14 b from the feed roller 14 a, and an operating unit 220 ′ to operate the resilient-spring support 210 ′ such that the resilient-spring support 210 ′ slowly moves from the first load position to the second load position from a time when the trailing portion of the document D passes through the second document detecting sensor 17 to a time when the document ejects from the nip between the feed roller 14 a and the first pinch roller 14 b.
- the resilient-spring support 210 ′ includes a hinge shaft 215 fixed to a support frame (not shown), and a load changing lever 211 ′ having a first end 213 ′ to support the first resilient spring 14 c against the first shaft 14 d of the first pinch roller 14 b and a second end 214 ′ pivotally supported on the hinge shaft 215 .
- the operating unit 220 ′ includes a load control motor 240 installed to the support frame to generate a driving force, a cam 221 disposed in contact with the first end 213 ′ of the load changing lever 211 ′ to slowly move the load changing lever 211 between the first load position and the second load position, a gear train 230 to transmit the driving force of the load control motor 240 to the cam 221 , and a position detecting sensor 260 disposed on the load changing lever 211 ′ ( or alternatively, on the cam 221 ) to control a stop time of the load control motor 240 .
- the arrangement of the load control motor 240 , the cam 221 , the gear train 230 , and the position detecting sensor 260 of the operating unit 220 ′ is identical with that of the roller-load changing apparatus 200 of FIGS. 3-5 , and so a detailed description thereof will be omitted.
- the operation of the scanning unit 100 ′ of the office machine to which the roller-load changing apparatus 200 ′ according to the embodiment of FIG. 6 is applied is identical with that of the scanning unit 100 according to the embodiment of FIGS. 3 to 5 , except that the load changing lever 211 ′ decompresses only the first resilient spring 14 c to gradually decrease the compression force of the first resilient spring 14 c acting upon the feed roller 14 a so as to prevent the jumping phenomenon of the document D when the document D ejects from the nip between the feed roller 14 a and the first pinch roller 14 b.
- a roller-load changing apparatus usable with an office machine, when a paper or document is fed by a feed roller and then is discharged from a nip between the feed roller and a pinch roller, a resilient force of a first resilient spring acting upon the feed roller is gradually decreased, and a resilient force of a second resilient spring acting upon the ejection roller is gradually increased, or the resilient force of the second resilient spring acting upon the ejection roller is not varied and the resilient force of the first resilient spring acting upon the feed roller is gradually decreased, so as to prevent a jumping phenomenon of the document.
