Abstract
The object of the present invention is to provide a paper pressing mechanism which performs feeding of curling sheets with a simple and compact structure. In order to realize the object, the paper pressing mechanism comprises a driving shaft 19; a paper pressing roller 15; a paper pressing arm 11 provided at both ends thereof with paper pressing portions 12, 13; and a supporting arm 17, axially supported in a rotatable manner at its one end by the driving shaft 19, and holding at the other free end the paper pressing roller 15 and the supporting arm 17 in a rotatable manner; and is characterized in that the supporting arm 17 is driven by the driving shaft 19 between a retracted position in which the mechanism is kept away from sheets of paper on a sheet table and a pressing position in which the sheets are pressed by both the paper pressing roller 15 and paper pressing portions 12,13 at the ends of the paper pressing arm 11.
