ABSTRACT:
In a copier, a document pressing device has a holder member pivotally engaged with a base member at its base end. A bracket is pivotally connected to the other end of the holder member by a shaft. An inner sleeve has its bottom pivotally engaged with a lug formed on the base member and positioned closer to a glass platen than the base end of the holder member. An outer sleeve has its bottom pivotally connected to the free end of the bracket and positioned closer to the glass platen than the point about which the bracket is pivotable. When a relatively thick document is laid on the glass platen, the device allows a cover for pressing the document to be smoothly lifted up or returned to its original position. The device, therefore, enhances the manipulability of the cover plate.
