Toshiba MJ-1104 Bundle Job Offset Operation, Stapling Operation, Stapler interference switch

[C] Bundle Job Offset Operation

The bundle job offset operation is to sort bundles of paper by placing the first bundle a little forward and placing the next bundle a little backward, and repeating this set of movement.

The paper transported to the finishing tray is bundled and each bundle is placed by the alignment plates driven by the front alignment motor (M5) and the rear alignment motor (M6).

The home position of each alignment plate is detected by the front alignment plate home position sen- sor (S7) and the rear alignment plate home position sensor (S8).

[D] Stapling Operation

The stapling operation is to staple a specified number of paper with the stapler unit.

The stapler unit is moved to the stapling position (the position differs depending on the paper size) by the stapler unit shift motor (M9).

The home position of the stapler unit is detected by the stapler unit home position sensor (S10).

The stapler interference switch (SW3) detects the no-operation area for the stapling operation and cuts off the power supply to the stapler while it is switched ON.

The stapling operation is also stopped in the area where while the stapler interference sensor (S11) is turned ON to prevent the stapler from interfering with other mechanical sections in the equipment.
