ABSTRACT:
An automatic document handler for supplying and removing documents from the platen of a processing apparatus such as a copying machine. The document handler includes a document supply tray adapted for holding documents awaiting copying and for receiving documents returned thereto from the platen after copying thereof. To assure a clear return path into the tray for documents returned from the platen and prevent contact by the returned document with documents previously returned to the tray, a rotatable double bar separator is employed, each document returned being received in the space defined between the two bars of the separator. Prior to the receipt of the next document in the return tray, the double bar separator is rotated 180.degree. to remove the previously returned document from between the bars and hold the document against the stack of documents in the tray to provide a clear path for receipt of the next document therein.
