Abstract
A large capacity sheet delivery apparatus mounted on a photocopier has an upwardly biased, horizontal stack plate and movable feed rollers, rotated by a drive in the photocopier, that continue to engage the top sheet of the stack as the feed position of the top sheet lowers due to removal of sheets from the stack. A sheet stripping mechanism engages the feed roller assembly and is movable with it. The horizontal plate has linear bearings mounted on its rear edge for sliding on a pair of vertical rods.
