  • Patent number: 11084682
    Abstract: A sheet processing apparatus includes: a second conveying roller pair that receives and conveys a sheet conveyed by a first conveying roller pair; a first folding roller pair that forms a first fold on the sheet; and a first rotation unit capable of rotating the second conveying roller pair and the first folding roller pair. One roller of the second conveying roller pair and one roller of the first folding roller pair are a common roller shared therebetween. The second conveying roller pair causes the sheet to be deflected and guided to the first folding roller pair, and the first folding roller pair forms the first fold on the deflected sheet by rotating the first rotation unit in a certain direction in a state in which the sheet is held by the first conveying roller pair and the second conveying roller pair.

  • Patent number: 10974923
    Abstract: A sheet processing device includes a conveying unit, a presser, an end detector, and a setting unit. The conveying unit conveys a sheet having a crease formed therein. The presser presses the crease in the sheet. The end detector detects an end in a conveying direction of the sheet at a position upstream of the presser in the conveying direction. The setting unit sets a crease position where the crease is to be formed. Upon detection of the end in the conveying direction, the conveying unit conveys the sheet to a position where the crease faces the presser, on the basis of the crease position set by the setting unit. The presser presses the crease in the conveyed sheet.

  • Publication number: 20200067207
    Abstract: In a joint structure of coated electric wire and terminal, a core wire pressure welding range and a coated pressure welding range are inserted into a cylindrical portion of the terminal from an opening thereof. The cylindrical portion is uniformly reduced in diameter in a deformation direction by an electromagnetic pressure welding method, and thereby the core wire pressure welding range and the coated pressure welding range of the coating are pressure welded with the cylindrical portion. A joining method of coated electric wire and terminal includes a first step of forming a core wire exposed range to the coated electric wire, a second step of inserting the core wire exposed range and a part of the coating into the cylindrical portion, a third step of inserting the cylindrical portion into a discharge coil, and a fourth step of causing a discharge current to instantaneously flow through the discharge coil.
