Sheet body feeding guide structure

Abstract

Guide plates of a guide structure have guide surfaces for guiding a stimulable phosphor sheet, and flocked materials are electrostatically applied to at least the guide surfaces. Coating layers are disposed in covering relation to the flocked materials. The flocked materials comprise 66 nylon, for example, and the coating layers are made of polytetrafluoroethylene.

1 . A sheet body feeding guide structure for protecting a surface of a sheet body against damage when the sheet body is fed, comprising: 
 a guide member providing a guide surface for guiding said sheet body;    a flocked material electrostatically applied to at least said guide surface of the guide member; and    a coating layer disposed in covering relation to said flocked material.    
     
     
         2 . A sheet body feeding guide structure according to  claim 1 , wherein said guide member has portions bent in a direction away from said sheet body, at respective ends thereof with respect to a direction in which said sheet body is fed.  
     
     
         3 . A sheet body feeding guide structure according to  claim 1 , wherein said guide member comprises a plurality of guide members having respective guide surfaces, said guide members being arranged along a direction in which said sheet body is fed, with said guide surfaces facing opposite surfaces of said sheet body.  
     
     
         4 . A sheet body feeding guide structure according to  claim 1 , wherein said sheet body comprises a stimulable phosphor sheet.  
     
     
         5 . A sheet body feeding guide structure according to  claim 1 , wherein said flocked material and said coating layer are made of an electrically conductive material.
