Abstract (en)
A sheet transportation device is provided which has a self-repair function and is capable of performing functional maintenance for sheet transportation. The sheet transportation device includes a plurality of transportation-related units (8) disposed in a predetermined order to define a transportation path (7) and each having a function of autonomously performing a sheet transportation-related operation on the basis of a control sequence applied thereto. Predetermined physical quantities concerning the respective transportation-related units (8) are sensed and the sensed physical quantities are stored as those indicative of the states of the transportation-related units (8). If any of the states of the transportation-related units (8) thus stored corresponds to a particular state, e.g., a faulty state, a control sequence is prepared by utilizing the states of the transportation-related units (8) and knowledge information concerning a sheet and the transportation path (7). The control sequence prepared in consideration of the states of the transportation-related units (8) is applied to the transportation-related units (8) for implementation of a self-repair function. <IMAGE>
