ABSTRACT:
A supply/conveyance mechanism for sheets includes: a hopper section (10) for accommodating a plurality of sheets stacked in layers; conveyer (20, 40) for picking up the sheets one by one or in groups of a predetermined number of sheets from the hopper section and conveying the sheets in an advancing direction along a predetermined passage; two detectors (60) for optically detecting a fore end of the sheet in the process of conveyance; correcting device (24, 25) for correcting a direction of the sheet in accordance with the results of detection of said detectors; and right and left guide plates (12) provided in the hopper section (10) for regulating both sides of stacked sheets. The guide plates (12) are capable of sliding in a horizontal direction perpendicular to the sheet advancing direction. The guide plates are also respectively connected with the two detectors (60), so that the detectors (60) are also capable of sliding in the horizontal direction perpendicular to the advancing direction of the sheet together with said pair of guide plates (12).
