PURPOSE:To permit a long-period unmanned copying operation by providing a document collector near a sorter so that the copied paper housed in the sorter is collected to a collecting tray by a driving means when the copying operation with one original group ends. CONSTITUTION:A collecting plate 6 moves between a bin 4b and the collecting tray 7 along the tray surface of the bin when a supporting member 11 is moved in a stationary plate 12 in parallel with guide shafts 13a, 13b by turning of a DC servocontrol motor. A gear 8a is fixed to the turning shaft of the DC servocontrol motor 8 of the plate 12 and a DC servocontrol motor 9 is disposed to a holding member 7a of the tray 7 by fixing a gear 9a to the turning shaft thereof. The gears 8a, 9a engage with a rack gear 27 constituted to a pole 14 which is fixed to a base 26. The plate 12 and the member 7a are moved vertically with respect to the pole 14 by turning of the motors 8, 9, by which the plate 6 and the tray 7 are moved vertically on both sides of the bin 4b. The unmanned copying operation is thereby realized. |
