Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is a printing machine that comprises a frame for supporting a pair of roller shafts spaced apart at a predetermined distance from each other. This machine features a flat platen disposed between the roller shafts and an endless sheet-feeding belt made of elastic material. The sheet-feeding belt has an inner surface that slides on the flat platen by the rotation of the roller shafts, while its outer surface has a high frictional coefficient that allows a sheet to be fed together with the belt. A pair of pinch rollers holds the sheet in cooperation with the outer surface of the sheet-feeding belt at the roller shafts, facilitating the feeding process. Additionally, a printing head is positioned opposite the outer surface of the sheet-feeding belt at the flat platen.
Another significant patent is a sheet conveying apparatus for printers. This apparatus comprises an apparatus body with first and second sheet exhaust ports, a printing unit, and a pair of feeding rollers for feeding a sheet to the printing unit. It also includes a pair of exhaust rollers for exhausting the sheet from the printing unit. The apparatus body features a support frame for rotatably carrying one of the feeding rollers and one of the exhaust rollers. The contact force of both the feeding and exhaust rollers can be simultaneously adjusted by an eccentric roller. Furthermore, the apparatus body has a sheet exhaust direction-changing mechanism that selects one of the sheet exhaust ports based on the type of sheet, in cooperation with the movement of the support frame.
