PURPOSE:To form a sheet separating device which generates no image distortion without making a device large-sized or without narrowing the effective width of a photosensitive body by constituting at least a part of a deflecting roller of the side spacing a separating roller to obtains a larger diameter than that of the separating roller. CONSTITUTION:The deflecting roller 8 is formed to obtain a large diameter as it is spaced further a separating roller 7. In case of separating a sheet by using such the deflecting roller, even if the sheet 8 is carried in a rise state, the part of the deflecting roller 8 of the part where the rise of the sheet is large also rises with a large curvature, to maintain the contact the deflecting roller. Accordingly, the sheet 8 is fed to keep along a guide plate 5 as it is as a whole. Thus an image is transferred on the sheet to eliminate the distortion. |
