Patent number: 11891271Abstract: The present invention is to provide a configuration facilitating removal of a sheet stopped on a conveying belt. In a sheet conveying apparatus that conveys a sheet using a conveying belt and balls, a sheet may be jammed and stopped on the conveying belt. In this case, it is difficult for a user to take out the sheet through a take-out port if the sheet is nipped by conveying roller pairs disposed upstream and downstream relative to the conveying belt in a sheet conveying direction. Thus, conveying roller pairs and the conveying belt are operated such that the sheet, which is stopped on the conveying belt and hence should be taken out through the take-out port, is brought into a state of being nipped only by the conveying belt and balls.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 2021Date of Patent: February 6, 2024Assignee: CANON FINETECH NISCA INC.Inventors: Toshiyuki Iwata, Hiroshi Mochizuki, Tsukasa Kondo, Tetsuya Kawasaki, Yuuki Kubota
