AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention relates to a sheet feeder that includes two reversed feed rollers. One of them can also have a downstream reverse feed roller. A controller sends signals to both rollers to adjust their speed accordingly. This allows for more precise timing between the rollers' operations.

Problems solved by technology

The technical problem addressed in this patent is how to efficiently control the movement of a roller member in a driving apparatus that can transfer power between different modes without increasing its size and complexity.

Abstract

A drive transmission device includes a gear train and a movable gear locking device. The gear train transmits rotational drive to a drive target, and includes a first gear train forming a first transmission path for transmitting the drive to the target, a second gear train forming a second transmission path for transmitting the drive to the target as drive opposite in rotation direction to the drive transmitted by the first gear train, and a movable gear movable between a first drive transmission position whereat the movable gear forms a part of the first gear train to transmit the drive to the target and a second drive transmission position whereat the movable gear forms a part of the second gear train to transmit the drive to the target. The movable gear locking device locks the movable gear at an idle position.
