<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To buffer impact force on a paper supply cassette so as to prevent the jumping out of paper from the paper supply cassette in the upward direction by providing a buffer means which buffers the impact due to the collision of an end part of the paper supply cassette against a wall of a paper supply device main body when the paper supply cassette is inserted and attached in a cassette mounting part. SOLUTION: A paper supply cassette 2 mounted in a lower part of a main body of a picture image formation device in such a manner that it can be mounted and dismounted freely suppresses both sides of a tip of a paper 12 loaded on a rotary plate therein in the direction of paper supply by a claw 13. A slide guide 28 of this paper supply cassette 2 is inserted into the main body of the device along a guide 30 on the main body side. At this time, a hook 32 on the main body side which comes into contact with a stopper 29 and prevents the coming off of the paper supply cassette 2 from the main body of the device is provided in the vicinity of an insertion port 31 of the slide guide 28. Moreover, a projection part 33 provided on an upper side in an innermost part of the guide 30 on the main body side and the stopper 29 constitute a buffer means to prevent the collision of an end part of the paper supply cassette 2 against a side wall on an innermost side of the main body of the device when the paper supply cassette 2 is inserted.</p> |
