Gate member of paper sheet delivering apparatus

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE: To deliver securely each sheet of paper and to hold one of two sheets of paper that have been conveyed by haphazard, by forming a delivering roller into a comblike shape in cross section and arranging a gate having a comblike shape similar thereto in cross section and capable of mating therewith. CONSTITUTION: The delivering roller 7 that can delever stacked sheets of paper one by one is made of a friction material and is formed into a comblike shape, and the gate member 8 is arranged which has the same shape as the delivering roller 7, is made of the same material as for the delivering roller 7, and can bite slightly into a plurality of grooves 7' between the teeth of the delivering roller 7. A sheet of paper in contact with the delivering roller 7 has an effective frictional resistance with the roller 7 and therefore is conveyed between the delivering roller 7 and the gate member 8, while a sheet of paper on the side of the gate member 8 cannot be delivered between the roller 7 and the gate member 8 since the paper has only a frictional resistance with the adjacent sheet of paper and in addition the gate member 8 is fixed. Accordingly, delivering of two or more sheets of paper can be prevented and sheets of paper can be securely deliverd one by one. COPYRIGHT: (C)1981,JPO&Japio
