Abstract
A stencil discharge apparatus for a stencil printing machine has a discharge box for storing a predetermined amount of stencil sheets after being peeled off from a printing drum so as to discharge the stencil sheets. The stencil discharge apparatus includes a compressing device for compressing the stencil sheets discharged into the discharge box through motion of a compressing plate; a compressing pressure sensing device for sensing and outputting a compressing pressure of the compressing means; a moving amount sensing means for sensing and outputting an amount of motion of the compressing plate; and a control device for calculating a storing amount of the stencil sheets in the discharge box on the basis of sensing a predetermined pressure through the compressing pressure sensing device and an amount of motion sensed by the moving amount sensing device.
