<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a paper feeding cassette capable of suppressing conveying of paper in an oblique direction by suppressing curving (cambering) of the paper in a width direction while suppressing increase of the number of parts and capable of suppressing a pressing member from being removed from the paper feeding cassette even in the state in which a plenty of paper sheets exists. <P>SOLUTION: The paper feeding cassette 10 is provided with a second pressing part 60 for pressing a central part in a width direction of an upper surface of the paper 50. The second pressing member 60 integrally includes a flat part 60a mounted to a lower surface part 13b of a lid member 13; an inclined part 60b integrally joined to the flat part 60a at an area other than an end of a lower surface of the flat part 60a, extending in an oblique direction toward an inner bottom surface 11k of the cassette body 10 and having an elastically deformable joint part 60d with at least the flat part 60a; and a pressing part 60c provided on a distal end portion of the inclined part 60b. When the lid member 13 is arranged on an upper part of the cassette body 10, the pressing part 60c is abutted on the inner bottom surface 11k of the cassette body 10. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT</p> |
