Automatic widthwise deflecting mechanism

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To shorten a widthwise deflecting time by moving a widthwise deflecting movable guide with reference to the position of an origin sensor to count the positional information with a counter and stop the movement of said guide when said information reaches the width information of transferred member. CONSTITUTION:A control device first rotates backward a feed screw 5 by a drive motor 6 to move leftward a movable guide 4 having a feed belt 3 away from a fixed guide 2 and stop said guide 4 when a dog 9 turns on an origin sensor 12. Next, the drive motor 6 is rotated forward to move the movable guide 4 to the fixed guide 2 side, while pulses generated when a photosensor 8 detects a notch K of a disk 7 are counted by a counter to stop the movable guide when the counted value reaches the width information value of transferred member. Then, when a plurality of printed substrates having relatively similar widths are changed over and transferred, the widthwise deflecting time can be shortened.
