Abstract

A feeding device includes a feed roller configured to feed stacked sheets, a first transmission unit configured to transmit driving force to the feed roller, a separating member configured to separate a sheet having been fed by the feed roller from the other sheets, a moving unit configured to move the separating member to a separating position where the separating member is in contact with the sheet to separate the sheet and a retracting position where the separating member does not separate the sheet, a second transmission unit configured to transmit driving force to the moving unit to work the moving unit, and a transmission unit configured to simultaneously transmit driving force of a drive source to the first transmission unit and the second transmission unit.
