A medium transporting apparatus includes a first transporting section and first guide. The first transporting section transports a medium.The first guide guides the medium transported by the transporting section, and is disposed downstream of the first transporting section with respect to a first direction in which the medium is transported. The first guide includes a first guide portion and a second guide portion. The first guide portion extends in the first direction. The second guide portion extends in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction.

A sheet separation mechanism adapted for being used in an automatic sheet feeding device includes a bearing supporter for positioning papers thereon, a sheet separation spring and a sheet separation holder. The bearing supporter defines a receiving groove. The sheet separation spring shows a rough outer periphery surface. The sheet separation spring is disposed in the receiving groove with an axis thereof being parallel to a bottom wall of the receiving groove. The sheet separation holder mounted to the bearing supporter defines an opening corresponding to the receiving groove. The sheet separation spring is restricted in the receiving groove by the sheet separation holder with a top of the rough outer periphery surface thereof being exposed through the opening beyond a top face of the sheet separation holder so as to separate the papers whereby and further ensure the automatic sheet feeding device transports the papers piece by piece.

A medium transporting apparatus includes a first transport member and a movable guide member. The first transport member transports a medium in the medium transport direction. The movable guide member comes into contact with and guides the medium transported by the first transport member along a medium transport path. The movable guide member is also movable from a first position to a second position downstream of the first position in the medium transport direction.

A paper guide which does not make stripes on an image on a printing paper. The paper guide of an electrophotographic image forming apparatus includes a guiding member for guiding the printing paper into a fusing unit, a plurality of guiding ribs formed on the guiding member to prevent direct contact of the printing paper with the guiding member, and a blocking bar formed on a leading end near the fusing unit of the guiding member in order that the spaces between the plurality of guiding ribs are blocked from the fusing unit. The blocking bar is formed at the same height as the guiding ribs and has a triangular section with a slope steeper than the section of the guiding ribs.

Sheets of recording paper are stacked and put on a push-up plate, and the uppermost recording paper is moved by pickup rollers and is separated by separation pawls. The separated recording paper is further moved by the pickup rollers so as to be carried out to the conveyance path between an upper guide and a lower guide. Notches are provided in those regions of the lower guide which correspond to the corner parts of the recording paper. Owing to the notches, the corner parts of the recording paper deformed by the separation pawls do not come into touch with the lower guide, so that the bending and jamming of the recording paper can be prevented from occurring.

There are provided a guide plate assembly in which at least a portion of a surface of the guide plate assembly opposite to an image forming surface of an image recording medium comprises a matrix layer, a cushion layer formed on the matrix layer to absorb impact and a resin layer made of a low frictional resin that is formed on the cushion layer, as well as an image recording medium transporting device to transport the image recording medium through a specified transport pathway, which comprises the guide plate assembly and transport roller pairs to transport the image recording medium through the transport pathway. A recording medium having an image forming surface can be guided and transported without flaw, in an image recording apparatus, an image reader and a developing device performing various image reproduction processing including exposure, recording, development and reading. Consequently, high-quality images without flaw can be obtained.

The present invention relates to a fixing apparatus that has fixing device for forming a fixing nip, recording material bearing an unfixed image being pinched and conveyed in the fixing nip and the unfixed image being fixed on the recording material. The recording material discharged from the fixing nip is curled downwardly, and a guide member guides the recording material discharged from the fixing nip. The guide member is slanted upwardly from an upstream side to a downstream side in the recording material conveying direction, and the guide member has a first guide portion and a second guide portion provided downstream in the recording material conveying direction of the first guide portion wherein a slant angle of the first guide portion is greater than a slant angle of the second guide portion.
