Abstract:
Embodiments are directed at a systems, methods, and apparatuses for automatically aligning the lead edges of a document stack loaded in a scanner system. An automated jogger system includes feeder gate elements which are driven forward and backwards in an oscillating motion. This motion causes the documents in the stack to slide between each other, causing the documents to move and rotate towards the feeder gate elements, aligning the lead edges of the stack prior to being fed into the document scanner.

Claim (Index 1):
A system for scanning documents, the system comprising:\n an input tray for holding one or more documents to be scanned; a transport drive system configured to move a document of the one or more documents along a document transport path; at least one gate element configured to:\n engage with lead edges of the documents held by the input tray; \n oscillate forward and backward in respect to the document transport path according to one or more oscillation parameters to align the lead edges of the documents; and \n disengage with the lead edges of the documents held by the input tray to allow the documents to be transported along the document transport path.
