Abstract

PURPOSE:To enhance the working ability in a universal paper feed container for an electrophotographing unit, or the like, by constituting a stored paper positioning member with a line guide member and an end guide member, and as well by enabling characters for indicating the size of papers on the floor to be observed. CONSTITUTION:A line guide member 8 is set so that it slides on a bottom plate 4 crosswise of the direction in which a copying paper 1 is fed and so that a display character indicating a predetermined paper size may be observed through a displaying groove 14, and then, an end guide member 9 is slid back and forth in the direction of paper feeding so that it is located in the position where the display character may be observed through a display window 20. With this arangement, the size of papers may be indicated and checked, simultaneously with setting of papers, so that errors in the size of the papers may be prevented thereby the working ability may be enhanced.

特徴を備えている。The universal paper feed container is equipped with a positioning member that can be slid in accordance with the size of the copy paper inside.
A single container can store multiple sizes of copy paper, and can be used especially as a container for storing special paper that is rarely used, small-sized paper, etc.
Another feature is that when using copy paper of various sizes, there is no need to prepare containers suitable for each paper size.

い等の問題点を有していた。However, in such a universal paper feed container, the size of the copy paper stored in the container is not determined, so it is difficult for inexperienced users to determine the size of the copy paper. There were cases where I made a mistake. For this reason, when copy paper is stored in this universal paper feed container and attached to the main body of the machine, it is not possible to confirm that the paper and original sizes match. If a copy is made on a paper of the same size, there are problems such as omission of the contents of the original on the copied paper and the need to copy the original again.
