(Prior Art) A device as shown in FIG. 1 as an example of a current copying machine feeding device has a sheet material, that is, a transfer material, and a transfer material 3 loaded in a loading cassette 1 is separated by a claw of the loading cassette. The developed image formed on the drum is transferred to a regular position on the transfer material 3 between the feed roller 2, which feeds the sheets one by one in cooperation with the system, and the object to be applied, that is, the photosensitive drum 6. Registration rollers 5 are provided to adjust the feeding timing of the transfer material 3 so that the transfer material 3 is fed.

In this apparatus, a transfer material 3 is fed from a transfer material loading cassette 1 by a feeding roller 2 and reaches a registration roller 5 via a feeding guide 4.
The registration rollers 5 are configured to feed the developed image formed on the photosensitive drum 6 so that it is transferred to a regular position on the fed transfer material 3. In this case, the developed image on the photoreceptor drum 6 and the transfer material 3 are aligned with the proper position without delay, and if the transfer material 3 reaches the registration roller 5 in a skewed manner, this is corrected. Therefore, in a region a upstream from the registration roller 5, a loop is formed across the leading edge of the transfer material 3, as shown by a solid line.

(Problem to be Solved by the Invention) However, if the feeding guide 4 rises steeply due to the configuration of the machine, or if the feeding guide 4 is charged due to friction between the feeding guide 4 and the transfer material 3. , if the transfer material 3 is attracted to the feeding guide 4, the force of the feeding roller 2 to push out the transfer material 3 is not properly transmitted to the front, and the transfer material 3 at the feeding port b is indicated by a broken line 3'. Create a loop like this. Therefore, the transfer material 3 may not reach the registration roller 5, or even if it reaches the registration roller 5, the transfer material 3 may not reach the registration roller 5.
If the transfer material 3 enters the registration rollers 5 while being skewed, there are drawbacks such as clogging or the development image on the photoreceptor drum 6 and the transfer material 3 not being in the correct position.

The transfer material 3 is fed from the transfer material stack cassette 1 by the feeding roller 2, passes through the feeding guide 4, and reaches the intermediate roller 9. The intermediate roller 9 starts rotating before or after the transfer material 3 reaches the transfer material 3, and is fed while giving the transfer material 3 a downward curl. Transfer material 3
curls downward, travels along the lower feeding guide 7 at its front edge while maintaining a small contact area with the lower feeding guide 7, and reaches the registration roller 5. At this time, as the transfer material 3 approaches the registration roller 5, the state changes from 3 1 to 3 2 as shown by the broken line in the figure, and immediately before the roller, the transfer material 3 changes to the reaching part (a in Fig. 1) as shown in 3 2 .
A predetermined loop amount is stably formed in the section).
This corrects the skew of the transfer material 3, and the rotation of the registration rollers 5 feeds the transfer material 3 to the correct position relative to the developed image on the photoreceptor drum (see Figure 1). .

The rotation of the intermediate roller 9 is started in synchronization with the rotation of the feeding roller 2, and the intermediate roller 9 rotates for a certain period of time at which a predetermined loop amount is formed at the position where the registration roller 5 reaches, and then stops. Then, as the registration roller 5 rotates, it rotates again. Further, its rotational speed is the same as the speed of the registration roller 5.
