Label Support

View page
US Patent:
62134604, Apr 10, 2001
Filed:
Nov 11, 1999
Appl. No.:
9/438720
Inventors:
Daniel Paul Cahill - Verona KY
Louann Behymer Samuels - Georgetown KY
Assignee:
Lexmark International, Inc. - Lexington KY
International Classification:
B65H 100
US Classification:
271161
Abstract:
A label support for an integrated label, which includes a label portion and a thinner paper portion, includes a base having a support surface with its rear end higher than its front. When the label support is supported by a support surface of a media support tray, its front end is closest to an inclined dam of the media support tray. The label support has at least its rear end spaced from the support surface of the media support tray. In one embodiment, the base of the label support has a first substantially horizontal portion connected by an inclined portion to a second substantially horizontal portion, which rests on the support surface of the media support tray. This embodiment extends for less than the length of the support surface of the media support tray for sliding along the support surface of the media support tray to accommodate varying lengths of the integrated label. In another embodiment, the base has a portion of its support surface closest to its front inclined toward its front with its entire support surface spaced from the support surface of the media support tray. In each of the embodiments, the trailing edges of the integrated labels engage two rear restraints, which extend from the rear of the base and are at an acute angle less than the complement of the obtuse angle of the dam of the media support tray, to enable the uppermost of the integrated labels, which are stacked on the support surface of the base, to be advanced into engagement with the dam for feeding to a processing station of a printer or copier.

Adjustable Compliance Of Separation Strips In A Media Dam

View page
US Patent:
20200399082, Dec 24, 2020
Filed:
Jun 18, 2019
Appl. No.:
16/444802
Inventors:
- Lexington KY, US
Todd Allison Quinn - Carlisle KY, US
Curtis Duane Woodson - Georgetown KY, US
Clark Edwin Jarnagin - Richmond KY, US
Donald Eugene Proffitt - Richmond KY, US
Louann Behymer Samuels - Georgetown KY, US
International Classification:
B65H 3/52
B65H 3/06
Abstract:
In a copier, printer, or similar device, paper is loaded in large quantities. To separate a top sheet of a stack of sheets from the next adjacent sheet, a dam is used, which is an element having an inclined surface in the path of the top sheet. This invention addresses devices with variably compliant separation strips, preferably a thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer such as Pellethane, that are part of the dam, so that the leading edge of a media sheet will strike the inclined surface of the separation strip. By adjusting the compliance of the separation strip, different weights of media may be accommodated while minimizing the multi-feeds that may cause jamming of the device.

Variable Separation Pads Based On Lift Height, And Methods To Rotate Or Curve The Pads

View page
US Patent:
20200024091, Jan 23, 2020
Filed:
Jul 18, 2018
Appl. No.:
16/038582
Inventors:
- Lexington KY, US
Stacey Vaughan Mitchell - Lexington KY, US
Chad Michael Piening - Lexington KY, US
Louann Behymer Samuels - Georgetown KY, US
Curtis Duane Woodson - Georgetown KY, US
International Classification:
B65H 1/24
B65H 1/26
Abstract:
Separation strips in a dam aid in the separation of adjacent sheets of media being fed from a stack of sheets so that only one sheet is fed to a process station and, more particularly, to separating the uppermost or top sheet of a stack of sheets from the next adjacent sheet during feeding of the top sheet from the stack of sheets of media. When a lift plate is present that adjusts the height of the media stack, rotation of the separation strips to maintain a constant separation angle improves media feed reliability. Curvature of the separation strips may also maintain the separation angle as the lift plate raises the position of the top media sheet.
