  • Patent number: 10471749
    Abstract: Examples of a hinge set for used for mounting a protractible component of a device are described herein. In an example, the hinge set comprises a support hinge and a guide hinge, each having a first end and a second end. The first end of the support hinge is to pivotably couple to the protractible component and the second end of the support hinge is pivotably coupled to a frame of the device. Further, the first end of the guide hinge is to guide the protractile component and the second end of the guide hinge is to pivotably couple to the frame.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6722802
    Abstract: A wet printed media output system in a printing mechanism including a frame is provided. The system includes an election mechanism mounted to the frame for ejecting a wet printed medium along a media path in an output direction towards an output area and a holding member mounted to the frame adjacent to the ejection mechanism. A portion of the holding member projects out of the media path at an angle to a plane defined by the output direction and a trailing edge of the medium for deviating at least a portion of the printed medium from the output direction. Furthermore, the angle is adjustable in correspondence with a character of the printed medium.

  • Patent number: 6663098
    Abstract: A kicker in a printing device is mounted adjacent to an entrance of a feed zone where a pick roller is located for picking a top sheet from an input tray in a pick process. A plurality of next-to-top sheets next to the top sheet move out of the input tray and stop approximately at the entrance of the feed zone during the pick process. The kicker includes a relatively rigid base part for kicking a first portion of the next-to-top sheets back to the input tray and a flexible top part attached to the base part for kicking a second portion of the next-to-top sheets back to the input tray.
