Abstract: A shock mounting assembly for attaching a copier/printer to shock mounts aboard a vessel. The assembly includes two steel supporting members attached to the base of the copier/printer that are easily and quickly screwed into two nonparallel shock mount frames with four jack screws to raise the copier/printer off its casters and restrain it in a fixed position. The four jack screws make detachment from the shock mount assembly a simple and time efficient process for repairmen.

Abstract: An electrophotographic printing machine in which successive copy sheets are supplied from a supply source thereof. A modular tray which is insertable into the printing machine is arranged to have a stack of copy sheets disposed thereon. When one marginal region of the stack of copy sheets has a greater thickness than the other marginal region the sheets are supported such that at least the opposed marginal regions of the uppermost sheet of the stack of copy sheets are at substantially about the same level while that portion of a majority of the copy sheets with the thicker margin regions is downwardly supported at an acute angle with respect to the surface of the uppermost copy sheet in the stack.

Abstract: An apparatus for electrically coupling a conductive layer of a photoreceptor to a reference potential, the photoreceptor being positionable between an operative position and a replacement position. The apparatus includes an electrically conductive brush which is electrically coupled to the reference potential. The apparatus further includes a mechanism for moving the conductive brush into electrical contact with the conductive layer in response to the photoreceptor being moved to the operative position and out of electrical contact with the conductive layer in response to the photoreceptor being moved to the replacement position.

Abstract: An apparatus is described which records an electrostatic latent image on a charger receiver. The apparatus includes a module which includes a bracket upon which a corona generating device is removably mounted. The bracket is also adapted to pivot so as to facilitate removal of the photoconductive member from the module.

Abstract: A recording apparatus includes a two-piece universal non-dedicated high capacity feeder. The high capacity feeder has separate paper storage/handling and interface modules that enhance easy adaptation to most recorders by modification of only the interface module. Easy removal of the interface module from the cassette insertion slot of the recorder is made without disconnection of the paper handling module in order to make the slot available for any number of conventional cassettes.
