Abstract
A device for preventing a slip-down of sheets of paper contained in an automatic sheet feeding section obliquely mounted in an ink jet printer is provided. The device includes a buckler body having a plate in contact with a bottom of sheets loaded in the automatic sheet feeding section, a guide projection formed at one side of an upper surface of the buckler body for jumping up a sheet located at the top of the loaded sheets, and at least one or more jack buckler having a plurality of teeth each having a slide side and a threshold side, the slide side guiding the sheet located at the top loaded sheets while the threshold side holds remaining sheets beneath the sheet guided by the slide side.
Claims20
A sheet separating device in a printer having a printing device, comprising:
- a frame diagonally mounted on a side of said printing device, accommodating loading of sheets to be fed to said printing device through an opening formed on said side of said printing device;
- a dam disposed on a lower end of said frame to contact a lower edge of the sheets loaded in said frame, having a groove;
- a buckler body detachably attached to said groove, having a first plane in contact with said lower edge of the sheets;
- a first tooth formed on an upper surface of said buckler body, having a first slide side and a first threshold side having a first angle with respect to a second plane perpendicular to said first plane of said buckler body;
- and
- a second tooth formed on said upper surface of said buckler body, having a second slide side and a second threshold side having a second angle with respect to said second plane perpendicular to said first plane of said buckler body, said second angle being different from said first angle.
