Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
120 words
A jamming detecting and displaying device in an image recording apparatus, having jamming clearing members, which comprises: jamming detecting means for detecting the jamming of an image recording material in said image recording apparatus; jamming displaying means for displaying the position where jamming occurs and information concerning procedures for eliminating said jamming; and control means responsive to said detecting means for determining a procedure for eliminating said jamming and controlling said jamming displaying means to display information concerning said procedure, wherein said jamming displaying means comprises light means located proximtae each of said jamming clearing members, said control means operating said light means so as to identify the sequence and combination in which said jamming clearing members should be operated.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
120 words
A jamming detecting and displaying device in an image recording apparatus, having jamming clearing members, which comprises: jamming detecting means for detecting the jamming of an image recording material in said image recording apparatus; jamming displaying means for displaying the position where jamming occurs and information concerning procedures for eliminating said jamming; and control means responsive to said detecting means for determining a procedure for eliminating said jamming and controlling said jamming displaying means to display information concerning said procedure, wherein said jamming displaying means comprises light means located proximtae each of said jamming clearing members, said control means operating said light means so as to identify the sequence and combination in which said jamming clearing members should be operated.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
20 words
A device as claimed in claim 1, in which said light means comprises a 7-segment light emission type display tube.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
103 words
A jamming detecting and displaying device in an image recording apparatus, having jamming clearing members, which comprises: jamming detecting means for detecting the jamming of an image recording material in said image recording apparatus; jamming displaying means located proximate at least one of said jamming clearing members for displaying the position where jamming occurs and information concerning procedures for eliminating said jamming, wherein said jamming displaying means comprises a 7-segment light emission type display tube; and control means responsive to said detecting means for determining a procedure for eliminating said jamming and controlling said jamming displaying means to display information concerning said procedure.
