摘要:
A sheet feed device includes a first sheet cassette comprising an accommodating portion configured to accommodate a first plurality of sheets, and a second sheet cassette disposed on the first sheet cassette and configured to accommodate a second plurality of sheets, in which at least one characteristic of the first plurality of sheets is different than at least one characteristic of the second plurality of sheets. The sheet feed device also includes a sheet feeder configured to feed the first plurality of sheets and the second plurality of sheets in a sheet feed direction toward a recording unit, and a sheet separator configured to separate, one by one, the sheets fed by the sheet feeder. Specifically, the second sheet cassette is configured to move above the accommodating portion and with respect to the sheet feeder from a first position to a second position and from the second position to the first position, and the sheet feeder selectively feeds the first plurality of sheets and the second plurality of sheets.

A sheet feed device has a tray with holding surface for holding sheets, a feed unit for feeding sheets from the tray, and a separation plate. The separation plate has an inclined surface and two or more separation portions that separate a sheet from the sheets held in the tray. At least one of the separation portions projects a first distance from the inclined surface. The separation plate also has a projection positioned on the inclined surface that projects a second distance from the inclined surface. The second distance is greater than the first distance. A first of the separation portions is positioned upstream of the particular projection in the sheet feed direction, and a second of the separation portions positioned downstream of the particular projection in the sheet feed direction.

A sheet feeding device having a first sheet feeding path and a second sheet feeding path through which a sheet is configured to be fed. A first sheet-guiding member is disposed between the first sheet feeding path and the second sheet feeding path. The first sheet-guiding member is configured to move between a first position and a second position. A second sheet-guiding member is disposed opposite the first sheet feeding path. The second sheet-guiding member is configured to move between a third position and a fourth position. A connecting member is configured to selectively couple the first sheet-guiding member to the second sheet-guiding member.

An image recording apparatus, including a sheet-supply tray device which accommodates and holds a plurality of recording sheets and which supplies the recording sheets, one by one, in a sheet-supply direction; and an image recording device which records an image on each of the recording sheets supplied from the sheet-supply tray device. The sheet-supply tray device includes a first tray which accommodates and holds at least one first sheet of the plurality of recording sheets; a second tray which accommodates and holds at least one second sheet of the plurality of recording sheets, and which selectively takes a stacked posture thereof in which the second tray is stacked on the first tray, and an opening posture thereof in which at least a portion of the second tray opens at least a portion of the first tray; and a supporting device which supports at least a portion of the second tray while permitting the second tray to selectively take the stacked posture thereof and the opening posture thereof such that the at least one second sheet held by the second tray is not plastically deformed.

A sheet-supply apparatus, including a sheet accommodating portion which includes a support portion that supports, on a support surface thereof, a plurality of cut sheets such that the cut sheets are stacked on each other; a sheet-supply roller which is adapted to supply the cut sheets accommodated in the sheet accommodating portion, one by one in a sheet-supply direction; a main side guide which is slidably movable on the support portion in a widthwise direction of the sheet accommodating portion perpendicular to the sheet-supply direction and which guides a side edge of each of the cut sheets accommodated in the sheet accommodating portion, the side edge being parallel to the sheet-supply direction; and a sub-side guide which is located inside of the main side guide in the widthwise direction and which is pivotable about a pivot axis between a standing position and a lying position based on the widthwise sliding movement of the main side guide.

A sheet feeder includes a first sheet-feeding cassette capable of accommodating a stack of recording medium and a second sheet-feeding cassette capable of accommodating a stack of recording medium smaller than the recording medium accommodated in the first sheet-feeding cassette. The second sheet-feeding cassette is disposed on the first sheet-feeding cassette so as to be movable with respect to the first sheet-feeding cassette. The second sheet-feeding cassette includes a first accommodating section and a second accommodating section. The second accommodating section is displaceable relative to the first accommodating section between a closed position and an open position. The second accommodating section exposes an accommodating section of the first sheet-feeding cassette wider in the open position than in the closed position.
