DEFINITION

Classification: 271/233

(under subclass 226) Device wherein the means for positioning sheets contacts the trailing end of a travelling sheet.

(1) Note. This subclass is for a device having a member that contacts the rear-edge of a sheet for the specifically disclosed purpose of aligning that rear-edge. The structure of the rear-edge contacting means may be similar to the structure of the rear-edge pusher found in subclass 269 or 271 below, but the difference in placement of a patent to the device is in the intent and function of the device. In this subclass (233) the function is to align the sheet in accord with its rear-edge; in the other subclasses (269 and 271) the function is to transport the sheet by pushing its rear-edge.
