2.1.1 MECHANISMS
Document Detection
The document sensor [A] detects a document when it is placed in the ADF.
Pick-up and Separation and Drive Mechanism
The pressure plate [A] aligns the leading edges of the pages of the document.
When the machine starts feeding the document, the mechanical clutch in the ADF
roller unit lifts up the pick-up rollers [B] to feed the bottom sheet of the document.
Then, the feed belt [C] feeds the sheet into the scanner.
The separation roller [D] prevents the feed belt from feeding more than one sheet
at a time.
The scanner motor [E] drives the pick-up rollers [B], feed belt [C], R1 roller [F], and
R2 roller [G].
