  • Patent number: 9884494
    Abstract: An inkjet printing machine includes: a paper feeder; a transfer unit having a conveyer belt with a plurality of suction holes formed thereon and transferring a sheet fed by the paper feeder while sucking and holding the sheet on the conveyer belt by suction force generated at the suction holes; inkjet heads discharging ink on the transferred sheet; and a controller performing printing by controlling the above components, wherein the suction holes of the conveyer belt are arranged so that, when the leading edge of the sheet in the transfer direction does not overlap with the suction holes, the trailing edge of the sheet also does not overlap with the suction holes, and the controller controls the paper feeder to feed a sheet at a timing when the leading edge and the trailing edge of the sheet in the transfer direction do not overlap with the suction holes.

  • Patent number: 9050836
    Abstract: A printer is provided with a transfer belt, a sucking fan, a printing portion, and an inter-head guide roller. The printing portion has a head row and a head holder. The inter-head guide roller is rotatably supported by a pair of support portions fixedly arranged on the head holder on one end side and the other end side of the inter-head guide roller. A plurality of belt holes is arranged on the transfer belt so that the plurality of belt holes passes just below each support portion when the transfer belt is moving.

  • Patent number: 8302960
    Abstract: A banknote processing apparatus according to the present invention includes a banknote separating and feeding portion which separates, from banknotes, one feed-out banknote closest to a banknote holding portion, and feeds out the feed-out banknote. The banknote separating and feeding portion includes a feed roller, a separating roller, a kick-on roller, and auxiliary rollers. The auxiliary rollers are positioned on an opposite side of the kick-on roller from the feed roller, protrude onto the banknote pressing portion side beyond the banknote holding surface, and contact with the feed-out banknote. Each of the auxiliary rollers has a plurality of large diameter portions formed intermittently in a circumferential direction of the auxiliary roller. The auxiliary rollers are positioned on the same axis and apart from each other such that phases of mutually adjacent auxiliary rollers in a rotation direction of the auxiliary rollers are offset from each other.

  • Patent number: 8113508
    Abstract: The invention provides a bill processor that substantially horizontally delivers bills one by one to an upper space of a stacking unit from a delivery unit, downward strikes and drops the trailing edge of a delivered bill in its delivery direction by impellers, and stacks the bills in the stacking unit. The bill handling machine has a regulating member that engages the leading edge of the bill in its delivery direction, which is delivered to the upper space of the stacking unit from the delivery unit. The regulating member can be changed in position in the delivery direction according to the length of a bill in the delivery direction.
