ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is disclosed which feeds sheets from a stack one by one separated from each other, the sheets being of the type which are cut to size and placed in a stack on a sheet receptacle. The apparatus comprises: a feed roller for feeding each sheet from the top of the stack, which roller is raised in a direction away from the sheets as each feeding of a sheet from the stack is terminated; drive means for operating the feed roller and control means for the drive means; means for causing the feed roller to move up and down for each feeding operation; and a pair of corner separators disposed at the opposite corners of the front end of the sheet receptacle for vertical movement in following relationship with the vertical movement of the feed roller. The corner separators operate to bear against the corners of the front end of the sheets only during the sheet feeding operation.
