IMPROVED INSERT HOPPER AND METHOD FOR IMPROVING THE OPERATION THEREOF |
摘要 |
An improved insert hopper for use in conjunction with the insert feeding device of a document handling apparatus such as a mail insertion machine. The insert hopper includes a support deck, a front registration member, and a back stop member. A bottom support plate for the insert hopper has an outer surface constructed of a low-friction material such as PTFE, chrome, or finished stainless steel. One or more wedge blocks are mounted on the support deck. Each wedge block has an insert support surface supporting a trailing edge of the lowermost insert of an insert stack loaded in the inser t hopper. The insert hopper can optionally have a tilted orientation with respect to the vertical.
