Zusammenfassung:The invention provides a device for redirecting sheets in a sheet transport mechanism. The device comprises a support member (31, 131) which supports a guide member (32, 132) for directing a path of travel of a sheet (S). The support member is movable between a first inoperative position (A) in which the at least one guide member does not impinge upon the first transport path (P), and a second operative position (B) in which the at least one guide member is introduced into the first transport path to redirect one or more of said sheets to a second, alternative transport path (P'). The device further comprises an actuator means (34, 134) connected to the support member, such that vibrations imparted by the actuator means to the support member as the support member moves between the first and the second positions are substantially parallel to the first transport path.
