Abstract

See full text

In a sheet feeder that feeds a sheet to an image forming apparatus, a sheet placing table has a placement surface on which a sheet is placed and is inclined downward toward a downstream side in a sheet feeding direction. A sheet detecting unit has an operation piece that presses a leading end of the sheet toward an upstream side in the sheet feeding direction with predetermined pressure. A regulating member is arranged in a vicinity of an end part of the sheet placing table on the upstream side in the sheet feeding direction. The regulating member regulates movement of the sheet to the upstream side in the sheet feeding direction and has regulating portions having different heights from the placement surface of the sheet placing table. The regulating portions are arranged so that the heights are increased toward the upstream side in the sheet feeding direction.
