SHEET FEEDING APPARATUS AND IMAGE FORMING SYSTEM

摘要

There are provided a sheet feeding apparatus and an image forming system that can horizontally maintain a posture of the topmost envelope in stored envelopes, by a simple configuration. The sheet feeding apparatus includes: a stacking portion; a conveying portion; and lifting members. A length of the stacking portion in a width direction perpendicular to a conveying direction of envelopes and also perpendicular to a vertical direction thereof is shorter than a length of each of the envelopes. The lifting members lift end portions of the upstream side of the envelopes in the conveying direction, upward in the vertical direction.
