Patent number: 11981125Abstract: A roll supporting device includes: a pair of supporting rollers which support an outer circumferential surface of a rolled medium, and which are provided so as to rotate together with the rolled medium; a side wall which has a reference surface coming into contact with one end surface of the rolled medium in an axial direction along a central axis of the rolled medium; and a pair of restricting members which press another end surface of the rolled medium toward the reference surface. The pair of supporting rollers are disposed on both sides of the central axis of the rolled medium when viewed in the axial direction of the rolled medium. The pair of restricting members are disposed outside a space between the pair of supporting rollers in a circumferential direction of the rolled medium, and are respectively adjacent to the supporting rollers, and are provided so as to be movable independently from each other.Type: GrantFiled: May 21, 2021Date of Patent: May 14, 2024Assignee: FUJITSU FRONTECH LIMITEDInventors: Takeshi Kitagawa, Tsuyoshi Yamazaki, Hirokatsu Nakamura

Patent number: 6606807Abstract: A page-turning apparatus comprises a first roller and a second roller, and also a guide located between the first roller and second roller. The guide is supported with a arm. A bankbook is carried by the first roller and the second roller, and the second roller is locked while the first roller is rotated. With the rotation of the first roller, a page of the bankbook is warped and rejected. The guide swings along the warped and rejected page. By carrying the bankbook with the page as it is, the page can be turned over.Type: GrantFiled: November 3, 1998Date of Patent: August 19, 2003Assignee: Fujitsu LimitedInventor: Hirokatsu Nakamura

Patent number: 6103963Abstract: Disclosed is a page turning apparatus for turning over a page of a medium. This page turning apparatus comprises a drive roller for turning over a page of the medium and carries the medium on a carrier path, a pressing roller, a carrier motor for driving the drive roller, a movable panel for bending the medium, a clamping member for clamping the medium, a driving member for driving the pressing roller, the movable panel and the clamping member, and a control circuit for controlling the driving member and the carrier motor. The control circuit has a page turning mode for retreating the pressing roller, protruding the movable panel and the clamping member, and driving the drive roller, and a carrier mode for pushing the pressing roller against the drive roller, retreating the movable panel and the clamping member, and carrying the medium by the drive roller. The single motor thereby works to turn over the page of the medium and to carry the medium.Type: GrantFiled: January 26, 1998Date of Patent: August 15, 2000Assignee: Fujitsu LimitedInventors: Hirokatsu Nakamura, Susumu Orihara
