Abstract
An apparatus for collecting copy sheets in facially reversed or overturned relation with respect to their discharge from a copying machine includes a guide member disposed proximate the discharge port of the machine. The guide member comprises a substantially planar guide portion inclined at a predetermined angle relative to the direction of copy sheet discharge from the machine, and a deflecting portion unitarily extending from the guide portion at a predetermined angle with respect thereto. The apparatus further includes a receiving tray spaced below the discharge port and toward which discharged copy sheets are deflected by contact with the guide and deflecting portions of the guide member for collection in overturned or face reversed orientation.
