Embodiment Construction

[0021] A paper feeder according to an embodiment includes a cassette, a main body, an actuator, a first elastic member, and a guide member. The cassette is capable of loading sheets. The main body part supports the cartridge so as to be able to reciprocate in a first direction and a direction opposite to the first direction. The actuator is supported by the main body. Further, the actuator is reciprocable toward a second direction intersecting the first direction between a first position and a second position at a position spaced apart from the first position in a direction opposite to the second direction. The first elastic member urges the actuator toward the second direction. The guide member is disposed on the case. Furthermore, the guide member is capable of traversing the reciprocating path of the actuator in the second direction when the cartridge is reciprocated. In addition, the guide member has a front end portion located on the upstream side along the first dire...

Abstract

The invention relates to a paper feed device and an image forming apparatus. According to one embodiment, a paper feed device includes a cassette, a main body, an actuator, a first elastic member, anda guide member. The actuator is supported by the main body. The actuator reciprocates between first and second directions in the second direction intersecting the first direction. The first elastic member urges the actuator. The guide member includes a base end portion, a front end portion, and a guide unit. The guide unit includes an apex portion overhanging in an opposite direction to the second direction. The base end portion is located at a third position in the second direction. The front end portion is movable between the third and a fourth position separated more than at the first position in the second direction. The guide unit is provided so that the apex portion can be disposed at the same position as an end of the actuator in the second direction at the second position.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a paper feeding device and an image forming device. Background technique [0002] The image forming apparatus forms an image on a sheet conveyed in the conveying direction therein. Sheets are fed from a cassette feeder included in the image forming apparatus. [0003] A cassette-type sheet feeding device has a cassette into which sheets can be loaded, and a main body that supports the cassette. The case is detachably accommodated in the main body. The user performs an operation of inserting the cartridge into the main body or pulling the cartridge out of the main body. [0004] The cartridge is positioned relative to the main body when stored in the main body. As a result, the sheet inserted into the cassette of the main body is positioned in the conveyance direction and the direction perpendicular to the conveyance direction in the cassette type paper feeding device. [0005] The cassette-type paper feeding device...
