Abstract
A rotation device rotates a sheet on an upstream side of, in a sheet conveyance orientation, a working device positioned in a middle of a conveyance path, thereby changing an orientation of the sheet. An information acquiring portion acquires sheet size information and sheet orientation information representing a size and the orientation of the sheet in a sheet storing portion, and working position information representing a working position on the sheet. A rotation control portion controls the rotation device in accordance with the sheet orientation information and the working position information. The working control portion controls the working device in accordance with the orientation of the sheet after passing through the rotation device, and the sheet size information and the working position information.
Claims4
A sheet processing device comprising:
- one or more sheet storing portions capable of storing a sheet;
- a conveying device that forwards the sheet stored in the sheet storing portion to a conveyance path and conveys the sheet along the conveyance path;
- a working device that processes the sheet in a middle of the conveyance path;
- a rotation device that causes the sheet to be rotated along a surface of the sheet on an upstream side of, in a sheet conveyance orientation, the working device positioned in the middle of the conveyance path, so that an orientation of the sheet is changed;
- an information acquiring portion that acquires sheet size information and sheet orientation information representing a size and an orientation of the sheet stored in the sheet storing portion, and working position information representing a working position on the sheet;
- a rotation control portion that controls the rotation device in accordance with the sheet orientation information and the working position information;
- and
- a working control portion that controls the working device in accordance with the sheet orientation information and a later-stage sheet orientation, and the sheet size information and the working position information, wherein
- later-stage sheet orientation is an orientation of the sheet after passing through the rotation device and is determined in accordance with a control result of the rotation device.
