the paper feeding device for a box making machine eliminates the intermittent paper feeding which gives rise to operational defects . the device operates continuously at a low speed to match the speed of feeding a quantity of paper with a timing correcting conveyor and increases the paper fed in the foregoing with the drawing belt conveyor in order to supply the paper to the timing correcting conveyor . furthermore , the device detects the paper passing the shutter on the paper feeding belt conveyor and stops the paper feeding belt conveyor temporarily when the paper happens to be mounted on the pawl of the timing correcting conveyor . the feeding of the paper starts again after a time lapse so that the paper is positively mounted between the pawls .
