The feed-out belt motor [1] drives the timing belt and shaft [2] that rotates the feed-out belts
[3] and [4]. The rear pawl [5] and front pawl [6] attached to the rear and front belts push the
stack out of the finisher after stapling.
The feed-out belt motor also drives the timing belt and shaft [7] that rotates the mobile
fence cam [8]. The mobile fence follower [9] converts the rotary movement of the cam to
rectilinear movement (left-to-right) and transmits this movement via the link/slider [10] to
the mobile fence [11]. The mobile fence is moved forward to start pushing the stack out of
the finisher. The pawls on the rapidly moving feed-out belt complete pushing the stack out
of the finisher. After the cam releases the follower, a spring pulls the mobile fence back to
its home position.
