<p>PURPOSE:To always succeed in a uniform paper feeding timing by connecting a paper feed roller to transport meand with a flexible guide plate. CONSTITUTION:A paper feed roller 5 mounted in a paper feeding member 4 is brought into a contact with the uppermost surface of papers 2 on a paper tray 1 by tare of the paper feeding member 4 and the paper feed roller 5. The paper feeding member 4 has a shaft 6 horizontally supported at the paper-out side thereof which is orthogonal with direction of paper transport. The support plates 8 are mounted in such a manner that the space between the plates corresponds to a feeding position of the paper feed roller 5, and the space is wider at the side of the paper feed roller 5 and gradually becomes narrow at the opposite side. The ends of two flexible guide plates 9 are fixed on each of the support plates 8. Therefore, when the papers 2 in the tray 1 decrease with paper feeding, only the flexible guide plates 9 are crooked and the distance from the paper feed roller 5 to transport means 10 is not changed so as to always succeed in a uniform paper feeding timing.</p> |
