STRUCTURE FOR FIXING PAPER STACKING PLATE OF PAPER FEEDER

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a structure for fixing the paper stacking plate of a paper feeder whereby the paper stacking plate can easily be fixed in place during transportation and movement. SOLUTION: The upright plate 12 of a fixture is gripped and one end of a long plate 11 is inserted into a slot 6 in a paper stacking plate 2. A vertical plate 13 at the other end is inserted into an opening 7 in the front wall 1a of a casing 1, and the paper stacking plate 2 is pushed upward by a spring 4. A locking hook 3 is disconnected from the paper stacking plate 2. Even if the paper stacking plate 2 is sunk down by impact, it is not locked by the hook 3, so that a decrease in the performance of the spring is prevented.
