<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a carrying device capable of coping with a problem in a conventional carrying device wherein a sheet discharged from a fusing station is hot. <P>SOLUTION: A carrying channel 32 is formed to feed a sheet S from a place where a sheet temperature is high in a copying machine to another place on the downstream side of the place. Several air drag coolers 10 are installed in the carrying channel 32, and its plenum 14 is connected to an air flow source through an inlet manifold 20. The air drag coolers 10 are allowed to communicate with the carrying channel 32 through an opening, for example, a slot 26 extending along the crosswise direction of the sheet in the carrying direction disposed between the inlet and the outlet of the sheet carrying channel 32. The sheet S fed into the carrying channel 32 is first fed along the sheet carrying direction and cooled by an air flow fed into the carrying channel 32 by the air drag coolers 10 through the slot 26. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT</p> |
