ABSTRACT:
A sheet feeding apparatus for use in a printer is disclosed. The apparatus according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a pick-up gear coaxially linked with a pick-up roller for picking up a sheet; a feed gear coaxially linked with a feed roller for transmitting a picked-up sheet to a location for printing; a driving gear in substantially rectangular shape, driven by a driving force applied from a motor; a change gear engaged with the driving gear and slidingly movable along the peripheral surface thereof, for transferring a driving force applied from the driving gear to one of either the pick-up gear or feed gear; a switching lever pivotly mounted on a shaft connected to the body of the printer, said level being swiveled with respect to the shaft when a carriage pushes an arm thereof, and for causing the change gear to be released from an engagement with the feed gear and to be meshed with the pick-up gear; a guide bar fixedly installed on the body of the printer, for guiding in the axial direction the change gear to slidingly move along the peripheral surface of the driving gear; and an elastic member elastically installed around the guide bar to shift the change gear from an engagement with the pick-up gear to an engagement with the feed gear, whereby the driving force produced from the mother is able to be transferred to the feed roller.
