ABSTRACT:
The disclosed apparatus has a data reading head and an elastomer ring on a driven rotor within stationary arcuate outer guide means for driving a sheet along a path starting and ending at a common location and passing the reading head. The elastomer ring and the outer guide are shaped so that their cooperation biases sheets against and into edgewise alignment with side guide means along portions of the path approaching the reading head and departing from the reading head. The sheet feeding path is arched away from the elastomer ring in the region of the elastomer ring, and the guide means has a light-absorbing channel that is uninterrupted by the elastomer ring disposed opposite the data reading head. The entire apparatus is readily opened up for service virtually without resort to tools and restored to operative condition without need for adjustments.
