ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a sheet feeding apparatus with a supporting member for supporting stacked sheets; a feed roller for feeding the sheets stacked in the support member; a driver for generating rotational forces in a predetermined direction and in an opposite direction opposite to the predetermined direction; and a shifter for shifting the feed roller to a position where the feed roller contacts the sheet stacked in the supporting member by the rotational force directed toward the predetermined direction, and for separating the feed roller from the sheet stacked in the supporting member by the rotational force directed toward the opposite direction. The shifter includes a driving force transmitter for transmitting the rotational force directed toward the predetermined direction by a first predetermined value and for transmitting the rotational force directed toward the opposite direction by a second predetermined value, whereby the feed roller is shifted by the rotational force transmitted by the driving force transmitter.
