In one example, a bail system for a sheet media tray includes a bail to apply a force to a sheet in the tray, a bias mechanism to counter the force of the bail on the sheet, and a control mechanism to control the degree to which the bias mechanism counters the force of the bail on the sheet.

Provided is a medium supply device including a spindle that supports a medium having a roll shape, a supplying portion that supplies the medium supported by the spindle toward outside, a plurality of support rollers that support the medium in positions between the spindle and the supplying portion, a moving roller that, in a contact position between the support rollers, is capable of coming into contact with a bridging medium extending across the support rollers in a state where a load is applied to the bridging medium and that is capable of moving from the contact position to a non-contact position of non-contact with the bridging medium, and a moving mechanism configured to move the moving roller from the contact position to the non-contact position.

A post-processing device including a stapler includes a restraint mechanism that restrains the stapler so that the stapler does not deviate from an initial position when a covering part is opened and a restraint release mechanism that, when the covering part is closed, releases restraint of the stapler by the restraint mechanism.

A recording apparatus includes: an apparatus main body that includes a recording unit; a medium-receiving tray that is configured to be switched between a first state and a second state; and a motor, in which the medium-receiving tray includes a first tray, a second tray that is configured to be displaced with respect to the first tray and that is positioned further than the first tray from the apparatus main body when the medium-receiving tray is in the second state, a pinion gear engaged with a first rack formed in the first tray in a displacement direction of the second tray and with a second rack formed in the second tray in the displacement direction, and a displacement section that supports the pinion gear and that is displaced in the displacement direction in response to receiving power from the motor.

A sheet processing apparatus includes a transport path for transporting a sheet in a predetermined transport direction; a folding unit disposed along the transport path to perform folding processing on a sheet transported through the transport path; and a downstream-side unit disposed on a downstream side in the transport direction along the transport path to perform processing on a sheet transported from the folding unit. The folding unit includes a space section disposed at a lower side of the transport path for forming a cylindrical shape on a sheet; a transport roller disposed in the transport path to transport a sheet to the space section; and folding rollers to form a fold at a predetermined position on a sheet in which the cylindrical shape is formed. The space section is provided in a range of overlapping the downstream-side unit in a height direction orthogonal to the transport direction.

An example system includes an advancement mechanism to drive print media into a stacking region, a movable media guide arrangement and a controller. The movable media guide arrangement includes a pair of opposing media guides to receive opposing edges of a print medium therein and a translation mechanism to move the opposing media guides between at least two positions, the at least two positions including a deployed position and a retracted position. The controller is to actuate the translation mechanism to move the opposing media guides into the deployed position when the advancement mechanism transports a print medium into the stacking region and to actuate the translation mechanism to move the opposing media guides to the retracted position to release the print medium.

A medium conveyance device includes a first loading base that has a first loading surface formed thereon and is movably supported on a main body, a second loading base that has a second loading surface formed thereon and is movably supported on the first loading base so that the second loading surface is positioned next to with the first loading surface and so that the second loading surface overlaps with the first loading surface, a mechanism that converts motion of the first loading base into motion of the second loading base so that the second loading base is arranged in a position corresponding to a position in which the first loading base is arranged, and an elastic member that is elastically deformed when the second loading base is not arranged in a position corresponding to a position in which the first loading base is arranged.

A post-processing device including a stapler includes a restraint mechanism that restrains the stapler so that the stapler does not deviate from an initial position when a covering part is opened and a restraint release mechanism that, when the covering part is closed, releases restraint of the stapler by the restraint mechanism.

In one example, a photo cassette for a mobile printer includes a support surface to support a stack of photo media sheets, a cover to at least partially cover the stack of photo media sheets, and a window formed in the cover to receive a pinch mechanism of the mobile printer through the window to provide a normal force to the stack of photo media sheets.

The present invention relates to a multi-banknote cassette with a movable stopper, and more particularly, to a multi-banknote cassette with a movable stopper, which is capable of storing various kinds of banknotes at the same time. The multi-banknote cassette may include: a stopper driver which is formed at the top of a cassette body and has a pinion gear rotated by a driving motor; and a movable stopper which has a rack gear formed at one side surface thereof and engaged with the pinion gear and is lifted/lowered vertically through a stack guide to guide an introduced banknote in the cassette body, while the pinion gear of the stopper driver is rotated. Through such a structure, various kinds of banknotes can be easily handled in one banknote cassette.
