SHEET FEEDING DEVICE AND IMAGE FORMATION APPARATUS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a sheet feeding device which can stably feed sheets even when a sheet loading amount is reduced.SOLUTION: A sheet feeding device 3 includes a lifting plate 40 on which sheets can be loaded, a pickup roller 71 which feeds the sheets to a conveyance path and an end cursor 42 which is brought into contact with the end edge on the upstream side in the conveyance direction of the sheets and aligns the sheets. A rotary cursor plate 60 is attached to the end cursor 42. The rotary cursor plate 60 is connected to the end cursor 42 so as to be rotatable around an axis extending in the width direction of the sheets and slidable along the lifting direction of the lifting plate 40, rotates and slides with respect to the end cursor 42 by being pushed up with rising of the lifting plate 40 and moves the sheets along the upper surface of the lifting plate 40 to the downstream side in the conveyance direction.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4
