Abstract: Multiple sheet set compiling in a compiler of the seriatim output of printed sheets from a printer with a sheet entry position and a lateral sheet tamping system for laterally tamping the sheets being stacked in the compiler, in which the accumulated stack height of the sheets being compiled is estimated, and in response thereto the height of the top of the lateral sheet tamping system is raised to be maintained above the top of that rising (thicker) stack in the compiler, and lowered for the initial sheets stacking, and the compiler sheet entry position is also automatically raised in proportion to the increasing height of the stack of sheets being compiled in the compiler.

Abstract: A disk stacker system for delivering selectively inverted substrate assemblies into a receiving tray. By alternating inverted with non-inverted substrate assemblies or otherwise grouping inverted and non-inverted substrate assemblies, handling of folded printed material is made more efficient and packing of the folded printed material is made more dense and efficient. The disk stacker system operates by delivering selected substrate assemblies directly to the output tray and bypassing the disk stacker inverting apparatus and by delivering other substrate assemblies to the disk stacker apparatus for inversion prior to delivery to the output tray.

Abstract: In one aspect, a microwave oven comprising an outer case, a door secured to the outer case, and a turntable supported in the case but extending beyond a case front face is described. In an example embodiment, the outer case houses a portion of a cooking cavity, and the cooking cavity is partially defined by a bottom inner wall, a top inner wall, and side inner walls of the case. The door is secured to the case, and the door comprises an inner wall comprising a recessed portion. The oven further includes an RF energy source for supplying RF energy to the cooking cavity, a controller coupled to the RF energy source for controlling supply of RF energy to the cooking cavity, and a user interface coupled to the controller.

Abstract: A dual mode stapling system with a first mode for plurally stapling a set of sheets parallel to one edge and a second mode for corner stapling at an angle to a set of sheets, with a single stapler mounted for linear movement by a simple linear repositioning system to selected stapling positions, but selectively further movable by the same linear repositioning system into a transition area where the stapler is automatically pivoted into the second stapling mode for corner stapling by a camming member which engages and pivots the stapler. A spring automatically reverse pivots the stapler back to the first stapling mode position when the linear repositioning system is reversed. The linear repositioning system may be a single reversable stepper motor driven leadscrew.
