<p>PURPOSE:To easily change the order of copied paper sheets placed on bins of a stacking device without increasing the size of a machine and requiring a lot of peripheral devices by providing a stacker of the stacking device, which can be fixed to a vertical portion of a transport path, with the direction thereof changed. CONSTITUTION:A copied paper sheet discharged from a paper discharge portion 4 of a copying machine 1 is sent through a transport path 12 to a sorter 10. In this case, when a copied paper sheet discharged from the copying machine 1 gets out from the first page first, with the surface up, the copied paper sheets on bins 6 are arranged in the order of page. At the time of reversing the copied paper sheets on the bins, fixing means are loosened and detached to reverse the direction of the sorter 10, and the sorter is again fixed. Whereupon, the copied paper sheets output from the final page first are staked in order from the final page first, with the surface up on the bins. Thus, the order of the copied paper sheets loaded on the bins of a stacking device is easily changed without increasing the size of the machine and requiring many kinds of peripheral devices.</p> |
