Sheet diverting unit

A sheet diverting unit for selectively diverting a sheet towards a first receiving path or a second receiving path, comprising:

• an inlet path arranged for advancing a sheet in a sheet supply direction towards a diverter,
• wherein the diverter comprises a shaft, a deflector connected to said shaft and comprises a tip and an actuator arranged for rotating the shaft, thereby selectively pivoting the deflector between a first deflector position for directing the sheet into the first receiving path and a second deflector position for directing the sheet into the second receiving path,
• wherein said deflector comprises a guiding edge and a second edge, said second edge is arranged to face a second sheet trajectory from the inlet path to the second receiving path in the second deflector position for directing the sheet into the second receiving path and said guiding edge is arranged to face a straight first sheet trajectory from the inlet path to the first receiving path thereby said guiding edge faces a guiding element in the first deflector position for guiding the sheet into the first receiving path,
• wherein the guiding edge is an edge of the deflector and comprises two straight portions and a recess portion in the form of a cavity between the straight portions in the sheet supply direction and, when the deflector is arranged in the first deflector position, the straight portions extend in the sheet supply direction parallel to the straight first sheet trajectory and the recess portion extends inwardly away from the straight portions to the interior of the deflector,
• wherein when the deflector is arranged in the second deflector position, the recess portion extends substantially from the guiding element towards the shaft of the deflector.
