Abstract
This paper describes basic study of sheet attitude during decelerated delivery of the nip transport mechanism. The nip transport mechanism with a pair of rollers is widely used in many devices, such as automated teller machines (ATMs), printing machines, and copy machines. In these machines, a sheet is sometimes nipped by two pairs of rollers at rotating unequal speeds. There are two kinds of the conveyance between rollers at rotating unequal speeds, namely, accelerated delivery and decelerated delivery. The sheet attitude during the accelerated delivery and the decelerated delivery can be changed. In this paper, we performed an observational analysis of the sheet attitude during the decelerated delivery. As a result, we have shown that the transport guide affect the sheet attitude during the decelerated delivery.
