Abstract

See full text

A paper feed device and a paper feed method that, even in a case where the number of paper sheets remaining on a paper sheet stacking plate is low, allow paper sheet changing to be facilitated. There are included a paper sheet push-up member for pushing up from below a paper sheet batch on the paper sheet stacking plate and a push-up member driving device that, in a case where the number of paper sheets in the paper sheet batch on the paper sheet stacking plate is not higher than the prescribed number, makes at least a part of the paper sheet push-up member protrude upward beyond the upper surface of the paper sheet stacking plate. Thus, a lower surface of the paper sheet batch placed on the paper sheet stacking plate is pushed up from below, thereby creating a clearance.
