Direct current miniature paper jogger

摘要

A battery powered paper jogger can be placed on a countertop for individual use. The paper jogger includes a power module for receiving DC power from a DC power source, and a vibration system for producing vibratory motion in response to the DC power. The paper jogger also includes a housing enclosing the power module and coupled to the vibration system such that the vibratory motion of the vibration system is transferred to the housing. A preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a timer for generating a control signal upon expiration of a predetermined amount of time or upon manual termination, and a switching mechanism disposed between the DC power source and the vibration system. The switching mechanism disconnects the DC power source from the vibration system in response to the control signal.
