Abstract

PURPOSE:To independently utilize a cassette as a sheet feeder, by a method wherein a battery, feeding a power to the drive member of a sheet feeding member, is mounted to a cassette body. CONSTITUTION:Sheets 5 are contained in a sheet containing part 4, a motor 6, acting as a drive member, is contained in a drive member containing part 3, and a battery 7 is contained in a battery containing part 4. A bottom plate is vertically movably mounted to a sheet containing part 2, and the bottom plate is pushed upward through the force of a spring to press the sheet 5 against a sheet feed roller 10 and a separating claw 8. The battery 7 and the motor 6 are interconnected by a cord 17 through the medium of an electric contact 16, and the electric contact 16 interferes with a means, such as docks attached to the sheet feed cassette inserting part of a duplicator body, to form a limit switch whcih performs ON operation.
