Abstract
A mounting assembly for mounting a lower envelope transport onto a chassis of an envelope insertion station. The mounting assembly includes mechanisms for a three-plane adjustment in XYZ directions so that the positioning relationship between the lower envelope transport and the envelope staging area in the envelope insertion station can be adjusted to achieve a desired distance at the hand-over point. Furthermore, the mounting assembly allows the lower envelope transport to be removed from the chassis for jam access, maintenance or shipping purposes. The lower envelope transport can be remounted onto the envelope insertion station without the need for readjusting its position to achieve the desired distance in the XYZ directions at the hand-over point.
