Patent number: 5012297Abstract: A sheet storing apparatus comprising a tray for receiving sheets ejected from a copying machine, a first shift unit for reciprocating the tray in the direction perpendicular to the ejection of sheets, an aligning member for aligning the sheets on the tray, which is in contact with the surface of the top of the sheets on the tray and a second shift unit for shifting the aligning member in the same direction as that of the shifting of the tray. The sheets are divided by the shifting of the tray every time a set of sheets finishes to be transported onto the tray, and the aligning member is shifted synchronized with the shifting of the tray.Type: GrantFiled: July 2, 1990Date of Patent: April 30, 1991Assignee: Minolta Camera Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Hiroki Yamashita, Keichi Kinoshita, Toshio Matsui, Wataru Kurahashi, Katsuya Yasuda

Patent number: 4993697Abstract: A copy sheet stack apparatus stacks copy sheets discharged from an image-forming device and binds them be means of a staple. The apparatus comprises a first accommodating device for accommodating copy sheets discharged from the image-forming device, a staple device for binding by way of the staple the copy sheets accommodated into the first accommodating device, a second accommodating device disposed below the first accommodating device to accommodate a bundle of the copy sheets bound be means of the staple, a fall device for making the bundle of the copy sheets bound by way of the staple fall from the first accommodating device to accommodate into the second accommodating device by its own weight, and a guide device disposed between the first accommodating device and the second accommodating device to guide the bundle of the copy sheets fallen from the first accommodating device to the second accommodating device.Type: GrantFiled: February 16, 1989Date of Patent: February 19, 1991Assignee: Minolta Camera KaishaInventors: Hiroki Yamashita, Toshio Matsui, Keichi Kinoshita, Kazuhito Ozawa, Wataru Kurahashi, Katsuya Yasuda

Patent number: 4973036Abstract: A sheet handling apparatus comprising a stapling tray for receiving sheets ejected from a copying machine and a stamp for stamping on the sheets in the stapling tray, wherein the surface of the stapling tray facing the stamp is made of soft and elastic material to reduce friction. The sheets are selectively stapled or stapled and stamped, and the stamping operation is performed after the stapling operation. Further, the sheet handling apparatus comprises an ejection tray for receiving sheets ejected for the copying machine, an elevate block for elevating and lowering the ejection tray, a linking mechanism for actuating the stamp to stamp on the sheets in connection with the movement of the ejection tray driven by the elevate block.Type: GrantFiled: February 14, 1989Date of Patent: November 27, 1990Assignee: Minolta Camera Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Hiroki Yamashita, Keichi Kinoshita, Kazuhito Ozawa, Wataru Kurahashi, Katsuya Yasuda

Patent number: 4232292Abstract: A data transmission system having a clock pulse generator 1, a plurality of transmitters each including a plurality of switches 7-1 for inputting data, gate circuits 5-1 receiving the outputs of said plurality of switches through one inputs thereof and temporary memory circuits 6-1 for temporarily storing the outputs of the gate circuits. Scanning circuits 3-1 apply outputs successively in synchronization with the output pulses from the clock pulse generator. The transmitters are interconnected first by a synchronous line S.sub.1 adapted to apply the output pulses of the clock pulse generator to the scanning circuits in the transmitters and secondly by a signal line S.sub.2 connecting the outputs terminals of the gate circuits in the transmitters.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 1979Date of Patent: November 4, 1980Assignee: Hochiki CorporationInventors: Katsuya Yasuda, Akio Adachi

Patent number: 4227180Abstract: A centralized monitor and control system includes a plurality of pairs of link lines which connect, in matrix form, a plurality of alarm switches, controlled devices, etc., installed at an alarming terminal end with a plurality of alarm display devices, starting control switches, etc., installed at a receiving end in correspondence with the devices at the terminal end, whereby the display devices adapted to be actuated by the alarm switches or the controlled devices adapted to be actuated by the control devices are operated in response to sequential scanning of the one link lines of the paired link system, thus decreasing the number of the link lines used.The number of the link lines used can be decreased further by effecting the sequential scanning by means of a parallel set of binary coded pulse signals and by connecting the one link line array of the matrix to the alarm switches or the controlled devices and the display devices or the control switches through logical circuits.Type: GrantFiled: January 3, 1979Date of Patent: October 7, 1980Assignee: Hochiki CorporationInventors: Katsuya Yasuda, Akio Adachi

Patent number: 4163224Abstract: The present invention is a display device with a memory which stores the order of reception of actuating signals from a plurality of terminal units. When one of the terminal units produces a signal a first counter causes the outputs of all the terminal units to be scanned. Each terminal unit is connected to a resettable one shot circuit which is scanned under the control of the first counter. When the signaling terminal unit is scanned, the resettable one shot is triggered to advance the count of a second counter. Then the number in the first counter, which corresponds to the specific signaling terminal unit, is stored in one of a plurality of memory means which corresponds to the order of reception stored in the second counter. The resettable one shot circuits prevent the number of a specific terminal unit from being stored in a second memory means due to a continued or repeated signal.Type: GrantFiled: February 25, 1977Date of Patent: July 31, 1979Assignee: Hochiki CorporationInventors: Katsuya Yasuda, Akio Adachi
