ABSTRACT:
A sheet conveying section (B) sequentially conveys a sheet (P) from a sheet feeding section (A), and a sheet folding section (D) folds the sheet (P) received from the sheet conveying section (B) in a conveying direction. The sheet conveying section (B) comprises a conveyer belt (3), and a positioning ruler (4) for positioning the sheet (P) while it is conveyed. The sheet folding section (D) comprises a folding knife (9), a pair of folding rollers (10), and first and second guides (11a,11b) arranged on either side of the folding knife (9). The sheet (p) is positioned to a fold position by the first and second guides (11a,11b) and folded by the folding knife (9) and the folding roller (10). The positioning ruler (4) is moved in a direction perpendicular to the conveying direction by a first driving mechanism (5, 6). The first and second guides (11a) are moved in the direction perpendicular to the conveying direction respectively by second and third driving mechanisms (21, 22; 23, 24). Control section (32) moves the first and second guides (11a,11b) in conjunction with the movement of the positioning ruler (4) and moves the second guide (11b) with conjunction with the movement of the first guide (11a) and allows the independent movement of the second guide (11b).
