Patent number: 7021729Abstract: A device mounting and retention mechanism is disclosed, comprising a guide disposed on a device so that the guide is capable of slidably moving along a guide channel so that a retention mechanism may engage the guide thereby providing a restraining force and ground for the device. A device retention assembly is also disclosed, comprising a guide mounted on a device so that the guide is capable of slidably moving along a guide channel disposed on a housing so that the retention mechanism is capable of flexibly engaging the guide, thereby providing a restraining force. A device mounting assembly is also disclosed, comprising a first guide mounted on a device and a second guide mounted on a device wherein a guide channel is formed so as to selectively accept the first guide and exclude the second guide.Type: GrantFiled: January 21, 2003Date of Patent: April 4, 2006Assignee: Gateway Inc.Inventor: Richard Mansueto

Patent number: 4968882Abstract: An apparatus such as a printer or a plotter feeds image-receiving media such as paper by rotation of a shaft, and a media position sensor responds to the rotation of a sensor roller. The apparatus includes a position sensor calibration device having an elastically deformable ring compressible between the shaft and the sensor roller and a calibrator for changing the distance between the shaft and the sensor roller so as to change the amount by which the deformable ring is compressed, in order to adjust the output of the media position sensor for a given amount of media movement. The shaft is connected to one of a pair of media-gripping pinch rollers, the one pinch roller being rotatable by the shaft, and a shaft motor is connected to the shaft. The ring is pinched between the shaft and the sensor roller. The calibrator is a screw threaded through a stationary threaded support and extending toward the sensor roller to push the roller toward the shaft and compress the elastically deformable ring.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 1989Date of Patent: November 6, 1990Assignee: Calcomp Inc.Inventors: Paul S. Tzeng, Richard Mansueto

Patent number: 4916463Abstract: In a thermal printer for thermally printing on a wide media with a composite printhead comprising a plurality of standard thermal printheads and including a small diameter print roller for supporting the media adjacent the printhead, an improvement to improve print quality by preventing bowing of the print roller away from the printhead. In one embodiment, there is a first cylindrical support roller mounted parallel to the print roller in rolling contact therewith along the length thereof to oppose vertical movement or deformation of the print roller.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 1989Date of Patent: April 10, 1990Assignee: Calcomp Inc.Inventors: Paul S.

Patent number: 4907014Abstract: An apparatus which records an image, such as text, onto printable media, such as paper, has a removably closable lid, a paper cutting blade mounted on an pivoting arm having an equilibrium position in which the blade is withdrawn in a safe position, and a rod actuator cooperative with the lid for rotating the pivoting arm whenever the lid is closed so as to move the blade from the safe position to an operative position adjacent a cutting block suitable for severing the media. The pivoting arm is rotatable about a pivot pin, the blade being attached at one end of the arm and the other end of the arm being lighter, so that the blade tends to fall toward the safe position under a front cover of the apparatus whenever the lid is opened.Type: GrantFiled: May 18, 1989Date of Patent: March 6, 1990Assignee: Calcomp Inc.Inventors: Paul S. Tzeng, Richard Mansueto
