Abstract

A separation roller includes a body, a shaft assembly and two friction roller assemblies. The shaft assembly is connected to the body. The friction roller assembly is mounted on two ends of the shaft assembly and located on two sides of the body. The friction roller assembly contacts a sheet, and the body is separated from the sheet. The body provides a limiting torque to the friction roller assemblies through the shaft assembly to limit movement of the sheet. A sheet separating mechanism using the separation roller is also disclosed.
