Abstract

A transfer mechanism includes a main rotating member, a first driving unit, a support mechanism, a holding unit, a second driving unit and control unit and transfers a sheet member from a pickup position to a delivery position. The support mechanism is connected to the main rotating member and the holding unit. The control unit controls the second driving unit in such a manner that, when the sheet member is placed in at least one of the pickup position and the delivery position, a position of the holding unit is not substantially changed in a state where the main rotating member rotates around the rotational axis in the first rotation direction.
