DISPOSITIVO DI CONTROLLO PERL'ALIMENTAZIONE DI FOGLI DI CARTA AD UNA MACCHINA CHE LAVORA CON TALI FOGLI.

摘要

A system for detecting missing or superimposed sheets fed to a sheet processing machine uses a measuring device for generating a signal increasing with the number of superimposed sheets and an evaluating device for emitting an electrical signal when irregularities occur. A pulse transmitter is synchronized to the sheet feed mechanism and operates to emit an initial and final pulse timed to the sheet feed. Electronic storage is reset upon the initial pulse, and operates to integrate values of the measured signal until the final pulse is received. Upon receipt of the final pulse, the stored value is compared to a reference value to detect any irregularities. Preferably a microcomputer is used for signal processing.
