[Solenoid Application Example] Office Machines and Equipment - Paper Feeding Device

Examples of applications using paper feeding devices such as typewriters, fax machines, and printers will be introduced.

Here is an example of applying the SDC-type solenoid to paper feeding devices such as typewriters, fax machines, and printers. This device is used for advancing paper of a certain length in a stepwise manner, and the diagram shows the unenergized state. By energizing the solenoid, the lever is pulled, and the tip of the lever moves to a position where the pawl is advanced by 1 to 2 teeth in the opposite direction of the rotation of the feed gear. When the energization is released, the lever returns to its original position due to the force of the spring, and at this time, the feed gear rotates, causing the roll connected to the feed gear to rotate and feed the paper. If a large amount of paper needs to be fed, the necessary feed amount can be secured by applying pulses corresponding to that amount. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
