ABSTRACT:
A sheet feeding apparatus has a sheet supporting device for supporting a plurality of sheets, a sheet absorb device for absorbing by air suction the uppermost of the sheets, and a convey device for conveying the absorbed sheet. A contact preventing air blowing device injects air between the uppermost sheet absorbed by the sheet absorb device and the next sheet to keep the next sheet from being conveyed while the absorbed sheet is being conveyed, and an air adjusting device increases or decreases an amount of air injected from the contact preventing air blowing device during conveyance of the sheet.
