Abstract

See full text

A sheet feeding apparatus includes a supporting portion, a regulating unit supported to be movable in a first direction, a feed unit, a variable resistor including a rotary member configured to be rotated by a movement of the regulating unit in the first direction, and having a resistance value changing according to a rotational phase of the rotary member, an interlocking portion configured to rotate the rotary member in conjunction with the regulating unit, and a substrate including a pattern surface to which the variable resistor is connected. An axial center line of the rotary member extends in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction and a direction of gravitational force. The substrate is disposed such that the pattern surface extends in parallel with the first direction and the direction of gravitational force.
