Abstract: A pickup mechanism includes a paper feeding channel, a pickup roller assembly disposed in the paper feeding channel and projecting beyond a top of the paper feeding channel, a paper tray disposed to an upstream of the pickup roller assembly, and a guiding swing arm assembly. The guiding swing arm assembly includes two guiding swing arms mounted adjacent to and spaced from two opposite sides of the pickup roller assembly. Each guiding swing arm includes a pivoting shaft, a stopping block, and an extending arm connected between the pivoting shaft and the stopping block. The two stopping blocks of the two guiding swing arms are disposed between the pickup roller assembly and the paper tray for blocking paper. An axial direction of the pivoting shaft of each guiding swing arm is deviated from a center axis direction of the pickup roller assembly.

Abstract: A paper separation structure includes: an actuating unit being selectable to generate a forward and reverse actuating torque (T); a one-way actuator connected to said actuating unit and being able to break the connection of said actuating unit while said actuating unit generates a reverse actuating torque (T); a breaking unit having a threshold of breaking torque (TL1), and said braking torque (TL1) set lower than said actuating torque (T); and a separating roller connected to said one-way actuator and said braking unit to receive said actuating torque (T) and said braking torque (TL1). With the combination of components mentioned above, the paper separation structure of the present invention has a plurality of torque thresholds for paper separation and can switch between active and passive separation modes according to requirements.

Abstract: A paper size detection device includes a central switch, at least two switches disposed to two opposite sides of the central switch at intervals, and at least a sensor corresponding to the two switches located at the two opposite sides of the central switch. The sensor can be designated as a light sensor. One switch triggers the sensor and the other switch is without triggering the sensor under an original no paper condition. So that a detection method of the paper size detection device that uses N light sensors to judge N*2 papers' size can be realized by virtue of the above-mentioned setting structure, N is a positive integer, such as 2, 3, 4 and so on. Thus, the paper size detection device has a simple structure and a lower manufacture cost, and the detection method of the paper size detection device is simplified, accordingly.
