FACSIMILE SHEET FEEDING APPARATUS

摘要

(FIG, 1) A facsimile apparatus-with a sheet feeding capability to supply sheets of documents and/or copy paper to a rotatable scanning drum 10. Rollers 22, 42 and 44 advance these sheets 26 on a sheet-by-sheet basis along the transport path 59, which includes a plurality of sensor 60, 72 and 104. The drum 10 is positioned so as to receive the sheets 26 prior to scanning and subsequently repositioned after scanning so as to permit these sheets 26 to be removed from the drum 10.
