ABSTRACT:
An improved document transport track drive system for a document processing machine for driving a document 10 along a track 12. The drive mechanism comprises a common drive motor 20 driving a drive shaft 30 arranged parallel to the plane of the documents in the transport track 12. Keyed to the drive shaft 30 are a number of drive pulleys 32 spaced apart and each driving, by way of a power take-off system, a document drive roller 16 mounted at right angles to the plane of the drive pulley 32. The power take-off system comprises a single drive belt 40 and a pair of idler pulleys mounted at right angles to the plane of the drive pulley 32 and arranged to turn the drive belt through 90.degree..
