<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a sheet separation paper feed device which can exhibit high productivity even if the device has a constitution in which an endless belt and a sheet bundle are approximated to and separated from each other when separating sheets by using electrostatic attraction, and an image forming device. <P>SOLUTION: The sheet separation paper feed device 15 having an attraction separation part 40 which attracts and holds the uppermost sheet S1 from the sheet bundle S by using an electrostatic force, and separates the uppermost sheet from the sheet bundle S comprises: a first bottom plate 51 at which a sheet mounting part 50 mounted with the sheet bundle S places the rear end side the sheet bundle S thereon; and a second bottom plate 52 which is arranged independently of the first bottom plate 51, and on which the front end side of the paper feed direction of the sheet bundle S is placed in the lower part of the attraction separation part 40. An ascending/descending mechanism 60 for ascending and descending the sheet mounting part 50 includes: a first ascending/descending part 61 which ascends and descends the first bottom plate 51; and a second ascending/descending part 62 which ascends and descends the second bottom plate 52 so that the front end side of the paper feed direction of the sheet bundle S may be approximated to and separated from the attraction separation part 40. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
