Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0542226A1] In a paper separating/driving apparatus, there is provided with second pinching/carrying device (27) not less than one in a position where papers shortest in length in the direction where papers are driven to come within a predetermined range can be pinched between a point whereat papers are pinched by a first pinching/carrying device (25) constructed of pick-up rollers (21) and gate rollers (23) and a point whereat papers in a carrying pass (3A) on the rear stage are pinched, which is capable of carrying papers at the same rate as a circumferential speed of feed rollers, and driven in interlocking with the feed rollers (22). The second pinching/carrying device (27) is then constructed transferably to actuation and non-actuation for pinching and carrying papers according to the length of papers to be handled. The paper separating/driving apparatus functions securely for separating and driving even such papers as are largely variant in length along a carrying direction, thus allowing a paper pinching point of the carrying pass on the rear stage to be disposed with a large degree of freedom. <IMAGE>
