SHEET SUPPLY DEVICE AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS
First Claim
1. A sheet supply device, comprising:
- a medium loading part that includes a medium loading surface on which medium is loaded; and
a medium supply part that is arranged facing the medium lading surface, and sandwiches the medium with the medium loading part applying a pressure to the medium, and sends the medium loaded in the medium loading part in a predetermined carrying direction, whereinthe medium loading part includesa first friction member that is arranged in a position facing the medium supply part so that the first friction member contacts the medium supply part when there is no medium on the medium loading part, anda second friction member that is arranged on an upstream side of the first friction member in the carrying direction anda friction coefficient (μ
d) between the second friction member and the medium is larger than a friction coefficient (μ
c) between the first friction member and the medium.

Abstract
A sheet supply device includes a medium loading part that includes a medium loading surface on which medium is loaded; and a medium supply part that is arranged facing the medium lading surface, and sandwiches the medium with the medium loading part applying a pressure to the medium, and sends the medium loaded in the medium loading part in a predetermined carrying direction. The medium loading part includes a first friction member arranged in a position facing the medium supply part so that the first friction member contacts the medium supply part when there is no medium on the medium loading part, and a second friction member arranged on an upstream side of the first friction member in the carrying direction, and a friction coefficient (μd) between the second friction member and the medium is larger than a friction coefficient (μc) between the first friction member and the medium.
