10.6 PAPER FEED DRIVE MECHANISM
10.6.1 1st Feed Station
Through several gears and a timing belt, main motor rotation is transmitted to
the relay gear [A] and then the 1st paper feed clutch gear [B]. The 1st paper
feed clutch gear turns the reverse roller drive gear [C]. The paper feed timing
is controlled by the 1st paper feed clutch [D].
The pick-up roller [E] is normally in contact with the paper stack. When the
leading edge of the paper passes between the feed roller [F] and the reverse
roller [G], the pick-up roller is then lifted up by the pick-up roller release
solenoid [H]. After the trailing edge of the paper passes under the pick-up
roller, the pick-up roller release solenoid is de-energized and the pick-up
roller drops back onto the paper stack in preparation for the next copy cycle.
