Abstract (en)

[origin: US2004041332A1] A sheet separate-feeding apparatus prevents double-feed of sheet caused by the separation roller, even in case that plural sheets overlapped to each other are strongly pushed toward a separation roller from a sheet stacking portion at the sheet supplying time. The sheet separate-feeding apparatus includes a separation roller for feeding out the sheet, and a separation pad which nips the sheet between the separation roller and it and separates its sheet from the other sheets, wherein there are provided stopper levers which are arranged on both sides of a contact portion on a sheet feeding surface between the separation roller and the separation pad so that they can come in and out, and which receive the sheet inserted from the sheet stacking portion.
