ABSTRACT:
A paper processing apparatus that can efficiently bind a cover and a set of sheets and does not reduce the productivity of the copying process in the previous step.
The paper processing apparatus includes a binding unit, a packet collating chamber and conveyance rollers. The rotational shaft of a conveyance roller has a spiral-shaped blade member that encircles said rotational shaft and has a heater inside. The packet is supplied from the packet collating chamber to the binding unit where it is carried in a particular direction as the conveyance rollers rotate. During this conveyance, the adhesive substance that is applied to the cover in advance melts and the packet becomes bound.
