<p>PURPOSE:To allow a pressing mechanism to be simplified so as to be operated easily by allowing a sheet material setting table to be displaced only with a feeding table switched in a feeding device equipped with the sheet material setting table which is employed by a copying machine and the like. CONSTITUTION:A feeding device equipped with a sheet material setting table includes a feeding roller 25 which feeds transfer paper 17 set at a feed position, a hand feed tray 29 which can be displaced both to a position facing the feeding roller 25 as shown by a solid line and to a position parting from the feeding roller 25 as shown by a two dot chain line, and a hand feed intermediate plate 302 which is installed in the hand feed tray 29 in such a way that it can be displaced both to a position contacting the feeding roller 25 as shown by a solid line and to a position parting from the feeding roller 25 as shown by a two dot chain line. Moreover, this device is provided with a drive means which displaces the hand feed intermediate plate 302 toward the feeding roller 25, a clutch spring which acts as a contact breaker is provided in a drive system so as to control an on/off operation of a driving means, and a control pawl 296 which controls a clutch spring depending on the position of a hand feeding table 30.</p> |
