A sheet feed device includes an air flow generating part that generates an air flow for floating a sheet; a feed member that feeds a sheet by rotating, while applying a load to the top one of sheets stacked; and a transport condition sensing unit that is positioned not to obstruct an air flow generated by the air flow generating part and senses a transport condition of a sheet fed by the feed member.

A measuring device, wherein a feed-out member feeds out an uppermost one of plural sheet-shaped materials stacked on a base by rotating in contact with the uppermost sheet-shaped material, has a detector that detects a force imparted to the base and the sheet-shaped materials not in contact with the feed-out member, the force being generated by feeding-out the uppermost sheet-shaped material.

A recording medium supply apparatus includes: a conveyance member that conveys a recording medium; a retard member, in contact with the conveyance member, that forms a contact portion between the conveyance member and the retard member and retards the recording medium by holding the recording medium in the contact portion; and a buckling prevention unit, configured to contact with the recording medium on the upstream side of the contact portion between the conveyance member and the retard member in a conveyance direction of the recording medium, that prevents buckling of the recording medium in the conveyance direction.

A sheet feeding apparatus includes: a multiple-feed detecting section that detects recording sheets to be transported by plural rolls in a direction; a separating section that separates an uppermost sheet of the recording sheets from the other; a slippage detecting section that detects a slippage of the uppermost recording sheet with respect to a roll; and a transporting-speed reduction suppressing section that suppresses a transporting-speed of the uppermost recording sheet from reducing from a value, the separation section including: a transporting roll that transports recording sheets in a transporting direction; and a separation roll that is placed to be opposed to and to be press-contacted with the transporting roll through a recording sheet, the transporting-speed reduction suppressing section changing a separation torque of the separation roll according based on a result of detection by the multiple-feed detecting section and a result of detection by the slippage detecting section.

A sheet feed device includes: a conveyor roller that rotates in a first direction; a separation roller rotatable in a second, reverse to the first direction, that nips a sheet with the conveyor roller; a sheet detector provided at a detecting position to detect a number of sheets; a pressure generator that generates a pressure to press the separation roller against the conveyor roller; a separation torque generator that generates a separation torque to convey the sheet on the separation roller in the second direction; and a controller that, if two or more sheets are detected, applies the pressure and/or the separation torque to the separation roller to separate the sheets until the detected number of sheets is decreased to be one, and that, after the number of sheets becomes one, controls the pressure and/or the separation torque to adjust a position of the sheet on the separation roller to a target position.

A sheet feeding apparatus includes a transport unit that transports a recording sheet from a storage unit, a separation unit, when stacked plural recording sheets are transported by the transport unit, separates a first recording sheet from the other recording sheets, and a push-back unit that can pivot from a separation action point to an end point of the storage unit and that pushes back ends of the other recording sheets to the storage unit during transport of the first recording sheet by applying to the other recording sheets a larger force in the direction opposite to the transport direction than a force applied to the other recording sheets in the transport direction, at a same time by applying to the first recording sheet a smaller force in the direction opposite to the transport direction than a force applied to the first recording sheet in the transport direction.

摘要:
A sheet supply apparatus has a sheet storing part that stores sheets, a sheet transport part that feeds the sheets from the sheet storing part and transports the sheets, a sheet separating part that separates the sheets fed from the sheet storing part, a sheet thickness measuring part that measures a thickness of the sheets separated by the sheet separating part, a sheet separating strength varying part that causes the sheet separating part to apply one or more of a plurality of sheet separating strengths to separate the sheets, and a control part that controls the sheet separating strength varying part to cause the sheet separating part to apply, from among the plurality of sheet separating strengths, one or more sheet separating strengths, other than a weakest sheet separating strength, during a time period which begins upon a start of feed of the sheets.
