ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a sheet feeding apparatus comprising a feeding device for feeding a sheet, in which the sheet (member to be fed) is urged against surfaces of elastic members that are opposed to surfaces on which vibration elements are fixedly mounted, and a frequency voltage is applied to the vibration elements to create vibration waves in the elastic members, whereby a feeding force is supplied to the sheet by vibrating surfaces of the elastic members on which the vibration waves are created. A detecting device is also provided for detecting a feeding amount of the sheet. The apparatus is adapted to urge and pinch the sheet by a rotary shaft of a rotation angle detection device or a roller fixed to the rotary shaft and a rotatable pressure roller disposed in confronting relation to the aforementioned roller. The pressure roller of the sheet feeding amount detecting device or the rotation angle detection device is attached to a pressurizing device which can vary an urging force acting on the sheet.
