摘要

PURPOSE:To realize the copying of paper or the like in the state under which the paper is assorted with every job, by providing plural rolling enable partitioning frames to a paper storing container and inserting these frames among the jobs of paper. CONSTITUTION:The main body 4 of a device that supplies the paper to the platen forms a flat case, and nearly half of the case is used for a paper storing part 5 with the other half used for a supply mechanism 6 respectively. The paper storing container 5 opens upward; and the bottom surface of the container 5 tilts downward toward the mechanism 6 and also has plural partitioning frames 7. The frames 7 are located at the both sides of the part 5 and consist of plural longitudinal levers 7a whose base end side is supported by a shaft and pressure levers 7b whose tips are connected to each other. Furthermore the frame 7 is provided independently and can roll freely. A detection switch 8 is provided to a hollow groove 5a to ensure a continuous feed for the paper assorted with every job. This increases greatly the working efficiency and other factors.
