9. BIN REAR PLATE DRIVE
[A]
[A]
The bin rear plates [A] basically stand up as shown (top diagram). They are
lowered only during stapling as shown (bottom diagram).
In staple mode, when all copies have been jogged by the jogger plate, the bin
rear plate drive motor [B] rotates gear [C]. Gear [C] drives the piston rod [D]
to push the lever [E] down.
The holder [F] engaging the pin [G] on the bin rear plate lowers with the lever
[E]. Thus, the bin rear plate becomes flat so as not to interfere with the copies
being brought to the stapling position by the grip assembly.
While the rear plate is down (during stapling), the bin rear plate open sensor
[H] is interrupted by the actuator [I] (bottom diagram). After stapling is
completed and stapled paper is returned to the bin, gear [C] rotates 180
degrees and the bin rear plate returns to its home position.
When the bin rear plates are in the home position, the bin rear plate HP
sensor [J] is interrupted by the actuator [I] (top diagram). Also, the holder [F]
is vertical again, and the pins [G] on the bins can move up or down through
the holder as the bins are moved up or down.
