Problems solved by technology

Adding loads to the binding edge curl suppressors will resolve the issue; however, a substantial increase in paper push force is also required to overcome the effect of frictional drag caused by increasing these suppressor forces, ultimately resulting in light weight media in the assembler tray the bend
When the incoming paper is not properly aligned due to curl, as pointed out, this causes poor alignment prior to binding and other finishing steps

Embodiment Construction

[0017] In Figure 1 , a side view of a compilation bracket 1 as used in the prior art is shown, having a rear guide (or compilation wall) 2 and pivotally mounted curl inhibitors 3A and 3B. As the sheet 4 enters the compilation tray 1, even with the curl suppressors 3A and 3B, the sheet 4 will often curl up at the leading edge 5 so that the sheet 4 becomes less likely to overlap at the trailing edge 6 of the sheet. The impeller 7 or other friction transmission component is used to drive the paper 4 forward against the rear guide 2 for alignment. Although in this prior art configuration the curl suppressors 3A and 3B reduce the tendency of the paper 4 to curl up, by their very nature of geometry they often permit reduced editing accuracy, thereby providing an inadequate stapling setup Alignment and often cause paper jams or damage to the marking system. As shown, the impeller 7 pushes the paper 4 into the carriage 1 and against the rear guide wall 2; as the stack rises, the curl...

Abstract

This is a compiler tray with a Velcro(R) surfaced back guide enabled to be used with Birds Beak Edge Curl Suppressors to minimize up curl and down curl of sheets fed into the tray and improve Stapled Set Registration. The Velcro(R) is either fixed to the back guide or adjustably positioned on the back guide. The Velcro(R) is placed on the back guide in such a manner that the ribs and grooves of the Velcro(R) are at an angle significantly not parallel to the plane of the lead edge of paper sheets fed into the compiling tray.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a finisher assembly bracket for a marking system. Background technique [0002] There are various marking systems that transport the paper or other media after marking the paper in the marking step. Some such marking systems include electrostatic marking systems, non-electrostatic marking systems and printers, or any other system that internally transports paper, other flexible media, or receiving paper to an output device such as a finishing assembler station. These devices include those used to collect or concentrate printed paper so that it can be formed into books, brochures, forms, promotional publications, instructions, manuals, and the like. [0003] As mentioned above, these marking systems have a finisher and a compiler at positions after the receiving sheet (sheet) has been marked. A finisher is generally explained as an output device with various printer post functions or options such as perforation, corner binding...
