Abstract: A finisher for finishing sheets for use in a copier, printer or similar image forming apparatus having a sorter for sorting sheets on a plurality of bins, and further having a stapler or a punching device. A bin moving member is provided for moving the plurality of bins to predetermined positions in which the bin moving member moves the bins to a positioning relationship such that an interval A between a first bin for accepting the discharged sheets from a discharging member and a third bin located at a position immediately over the first bin, an interval B between the first bin and a second bin located at a position immediately under the first bin, and an interval D between the third bin located at a position immediately over the first bin and a fifth bin located at a position immediately over the third bin are broader than an interval E between other adjacent regular bins.

Abstract: A finisher for binding paper sheets sequentially driven out of an image forming apparatus. A finisher moves along an edge of a stack of sheets and curves around a corner. A pair of individualy operated gripper fingers grabs the stack of sheets and moves the stack into position for finishing.

Abstract: A radio-link continuity keeping equipment in a cellular telephone mobile station includes a removable battery, a backup memory for storing therein a channel connection information when the battery is removed during a conversation mode, a timer for measuring an elapsed time after the battery is removed during the conversation mode until the battery is again set, and a device for judging whether or not the elapsed time measured by the timer is within a predetermined time and when the elapsed time is within the predetermined time, for restoring voice channel on the basis of the channel connection information stored in the backup memory. The timer is provided for measuring a time during which a battery is detached, i.e., the elapsed time after the battery is detached until a new battery is again set. When the measured time of the timer is shorter than the predetermined time, a voice channel is restored on the basis of the channel connection information stored in the backup memory.

Abstract: In a radio communication system, a base station transmits a signal including a component which designates a power level. A mobile station receives the signal from the base station. In the mobile station, an output power of the mobile station is set to the designated power level, and a field level of the received signal transmitted from the base station is detected. A determination is made as to whether or not the detected field level of the received signal is equal to or higher than a predetermined field level. The output power of the mobile station is decreased from the designated power level by a predetermined value when the detected field level of the received signal is equal to or higher than the predetermined field level.

At this instant, the paper positioning member does not interfere with a shifting motion of the tray.

Abstract: A finisher for use with a copier, printer or similar image forming apparatus for stapling or otherwise finishing paper sheets sequentially driven out of the apparatus. A paper sheet is introduced in a stapling section of a stapling device by being switched back, while being accurately guided by a guide member having a sufficient length. The stapling device is movable, independently of jogger fences which position paper sheets, to a particular position which is optimal for the size of stacked paper sheets and the position in which they are used. When a staple error detector detects a stapling error, a discharge path in use is switched over to another path. When a stapled paper stack is discharged, it is deformed in a wave-like configuration in a direction perpendicular to an intended direction of transport to be provided with a certain degree of rigidity. This allows the stapled paper stack to be driven out stably, epecially without being loosened at the discharge side.
