Abstract
A sheet binding device includes a pressurizing unit that pressurizes a sheet bundle to bind the sheet bundle, a pressurizing section that is disposed in the pressurizing unit and configured to be moved from a waiting position separated from the sheet bundle to a pressurizing position at which the pressurizing section pressurizes the sheet bundle, a drive motor that actuates the pressurizing unit, and a controller that controls the drive motor such that the pressurizing section is engaged with the sheet bundle at a predetermined setting velocity.
Claims12
A sheet binding device comprising:
- a pressurizing unit that pressurizes a sheet bundle by a pressurizing section to bind the sheet bundle, the pressurizing section being configured to be moved from a waiting position separated from a sheet bundle to a pressurizing position at which the pressurizing section pressurizes the sheet bundle;
- a drive motor that actuates the pressurizing unit so that the pressurizing section is moved from the waiting position to the pressurizing position;
- and
- a controller that controls a rotational speed of the drive motor based on a detection of a rotation of the drive motor such that the pressurizing section is engaged with a sheet bundle at a predetermined setting velocity.
