Problems solved by technology

Therefore, during the execution of the folding process, the integration component does not perform any function (role)
On the other hand, since the movement of the integrating member does not start when the execution of the folding process is not completed, the movement start point of the integrating member is postponed meaninglessly, and the time required for the folding process becomes long
In the described technique, the problem cannot be solved

Embodiment approach

[0059] Next, refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The configuration and execution procedure (folding processing method) related to the embodiment of the present invention will be described. Figure 4 It is a functional block diagram of the digital multifunction machine and the finisher including the folding processing device of the present invention. Figure 5 is a flowchart for illustrating the execution steps of the present invention.

[0060] First, when the user turns on the power of the multifunction peripheral 100 to which the finisher 125 is installed, the multifunction peripheral 100 and the finisher 125 are activated. The display receiving unit 401 of the digital multifunction peripheral 100 displays a predetermined operation screen (initial screen) to receive input of setting conditions related to the copy function ( Figure 5 : S101).

[0061] Therefore, the user places a plurality of (for example, three) originals on the automatic document feeder 101a, and inputs f...

Abstract

The folding device 127 includes a folding unit 405 and a prior moving unit 406. The folding unit 405 performs the folding process on the paper aligned by the alignment member positioned at the folding position. The prior moving unit 406 moves the alignment member from the folding position to the home position or the alignment position according to a position of the end of the paper being moved in the folding process. This can put ahead the starting time for moving the alignment members and reduce the time required for a subsequent folding process, thereby improving efficiency (productivity) of the folding process as a whole.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a folding processing device capable of improving the efficiency (productivity) of folding processing, and an image forming apparatus including the folding device. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, for example, a folding processing device is provided in a sheet post-processing device installed in an image forming device such as a multi-function peripheral. The paper post-processing device accumulates the paper on the stacking table to form a bundle, and uses the paper binding device to bind the central part of the paper bundle in the conveying direction, and further uses the folding processing device to fold the central part to make a shape like a weekly magazine booklet. In addition, the operation of binding and bending the sheet bundle is called a saddle stitching operation. [0003] The folding processing device folds paper by a pair of paper folding rotors. There are limitations in folding performance ...
