摘要

Sheet alignment module and post-processing device comprising such sheet alignment module for aligning sheets in an operative orientation on a substantially horizontal sheet support member, comprising a support roller, the support roller being rotatably mounted on the sheet alignment module and configured to support the sheet alignment module during a sheet aligning movement, the sheet alignment module further comprising a jogger member comprising a substantially flat surface extending in a substantially vertical direction, the jogger member is moveably mounted on the sheet alignment module such that the jogger member is freely moveable in a substantially vertical direction with respect to the sheet alignment module.

主权项

1. A sheet alignment module assembly for aligning sheets in an operative orientation on a substantially horizontal sheet support member, the sheet alignment module comprising:
a substantially horizontal sheet support member for supporting a stack of subsequently fed sheets, and a sheet alignment module, the sheet alignment module comprising:
a main body provided on or above the sheet support member, wherein the main body is moveable in a substantially horizontal direction with respect to the sheet support member for jogging sheets stacked on the sheet support member and moveable in a substantially vertical direction with respect to the sheet support member;a jogger member comprising a substantially flat surface extending in a substantially vertical direction and moveably mounted on the main body, such that the jogger member is freely moveable in a substantially vertical direction with respect to the main body for allowing a bottom end of the jogger member to scrape over a top surface of the stack or sheet support member; anda support roller configured to roll in the substantially horizontal direction over the top of an existing stack or on top of the sheet support member, wherein the support roller is rotatably mounted on the main body and configured to support the sheet alignment module during a sheet aligning movement.
