Abstract

In a device for single-sheet (1) supply in office machines (2), the single sheets (1) form a stack (3) of sheets, on which stationary, rotary-driven draw-off rollers (4) rest, in which case one single sheet (1) can be drawn off via separating corners (5) of a paper pick-up frame (6) and the stack (3) of sheets lies on a sprung swivel plate between lateral paper guide frames (7a, 7b). The optional use of the fixed paper pick-up frame (6) or an additional paper cassette (12) is proposed, the separating corners (5, 30), present on paper pick-up frames (6) and the additional paper cassette (12), assuming the same spacing in relation to the circumference of draw-off rollers (4). <IMAGE>
