摘要： A retard roller of an automatic document feeder provides a frictional force to separate plural documents from each other. The retard roller can provide a first damping torque and a second damping torque with different directions. The second damping torque is smaller than the first damping torque. As such, the frictional force exerted on the document is reduced for returning the document out of the automatic document feeder. A retard roller module having such a retard roller is also provided.

摘要： A paper-feeding mechanism of an automatic document feeder includes a pick-up module, a supporting module and a paper stopping module. The pick-up module is used for picking an uppermost paper sheet from the stack of paper sheets and transporting the uppermost paper sheet into a passageway inside the automatic document feeder. The supporting module supports the pick-up module and is rotated to either ascend or descend the pick-up module, wherein the supporting module has a sustaining part on a sidewall thereof. When the supporting module and the pick-up module are downwardly rotated, the stopping plate is moved vertically to a paper-feeding position for allowing the uppermost paper sheet to be transported into the passageway. When the supporting module and the pick-up module are upwardly rotated, the stopping plate is moved vertically to a paper-stopping position for hindering the uppermost paper sheet from being transported into the passageway.

摘要： An automatic document feeder includes a paper pick-up device, a first roller assembly, and a second roller assembly. The first roller assembly includes a first shaft, a first roller, and a power coupling device. When the power coupling device is connected with the first shaft and the first roller for transmitting a paper, the first roller is driven to be rotated by the first shaft. When the front edge of the paper is moved to the second roller assembly, the first roller is driven to be rotated at a higher speed by the paper. Consequently, a power connection between the first roller and the first shaft is released by the power coupling device. Then, the first roller reaches a static status in order to correct the skew phenomenon of the next paper.
