Paper conveying apparatus with paper threading mode feeding continuous paper without tension

摘要

In a printing machine, it is enabled to prevent continuous paper from being broken when the continuous paper is initially fed through a path of its conveyance.;The paper conveying apparatus is provided that the path of conveyance of continuous paper 1 is provided with a first, a second and a third feed roll unit 5, 6 and 7, having their respective feed rates which when continuous paper is printed on and machined are controlled to increase in the order of the feed roll units to generate a proper amount of tension imparted thereto and which when the continuous paper is initially fed through the path are controlled to decrease in the order of the feed roll units so as not to generate tension whereby the continuous paper is prevented from being broken in the course of initial paper threading in the printing machine.

1. A paper conveying apparatus for conveying continuous paper in a printing machine which is provided with a printing section, a machining section, and a plurality of feed roll units for conveying the continuous paper by feeding the continuous paper in the printing section and the machining section while the continuous paper is caught in the feed roll units so as to successively print on and machine the continuous paper while in conveyance by the feed roll units, characterized in that the paper conveying apparatus comprises:
a control means for individually controlling respective feed rates of said feed roll units, said control means having a printing mode and an initial paper threading mode, said control means when in said printing mode controlling the respective feed rates of the feed roll units so that the feed rate of a said feed roll unit at a downstream side is larger than the feed rate of a said feed roll unit at a side upstream thereof so as to generate a proper amount of tension and impart it to the continuous paper,
said control means when in said initial paper threading mode controlling the respective feed rates of the feed roll units so that the feed rate of said feed roll unit at the downstream side is smaller than the feed rate of said feed roll unit at the side upstream thereof so as not to generate tension to the continuous paper.
