ABSTRACT:
An improved recirculating document feeder for presenting sheets from a document sheet stack individually to a station of the reproduction apparatus for reproducing of information contained on such sheets. The improved recirculating document feeder comprises a housing containing a support for a document sheet stack. A feed path extends away from and then back to the document stack support, for directing sheets from the support into association with the reproducing station and then back to the stack. Document sheets are selectively fed from the stack seriatim about the feed path. The feed for the document sheets includes a transport assembly overlying at least a portion of the reproduction apparatus station. The transport assembly is mounted for movement relative to the housing, and engageable by a spacer associated with the reproduction apparatus station for self-adjustment of the transport assembly in the mount to locate the transport assembly a predetermined distance from the reproduction apparatus station irrespective of the position of the housing relative to said reproduction apparatus station.
