を下降させた状態を第５図の８１で示す。On the other hand, when copying multiple originals in multi-copy mode, first move the first original to the position inside the main body shown by the solid line in Figure 2, and then eject it. The paper tray is placed in tray 3-1. : Accumulate on. As shown in FIG.
A plurality of sheets of laminated paper P1 are stacked on top of each other, with the paper tray of each sheet lowered to the lower end 3a of the tray 3. When the first multi-copy mode ends 1, more specifically, when a multi-copy end signal is generated, the rotational drive section 10 is actuated by that signal, and the rotational drive shaft 11 is rotated in the direction of arrow A in FIG. let This rotation drive shaft 11
As the lever 7 rotates, the tip 6a of the paper regulating plate 6 protrudes from the opening 9, and the paper tray descends onto the tray 3. At this time, the leading end 6a of the paper regulating plate 6 is aligned with the stacked paper P.
Although the rotary drive shaft 11 continues to rotate even after contacting the
Since the lever 7 is biased by the spring 15 at the bearing part 12 so that it can escape in the opposite direction to the downward direction, the lever 7 is moved to the rotary drive shaft 11 while the tip end 6a is in contact with the upper surface of the laminated paper P1. only rotates. That is, even if the rotary drive shaft 11 is rotated by the rotation angle that lowers the tip end 6a of the paper tray 3 to the surface of the tray 3 when no paper is placed on the tray 3, the paper tray will not move. When there is stacked paper P1 on the tray 3, after the tip 6a comes into contact with the upper surface of the paper, the rotation drive shaft 11 idles while the pin 14 moves along the groove 13, so that no excess pressure is applied to the paper surface. The paper regulating plate 6 can be safely lowered without damaging the paper surface. In this way, the leading end 6a is placed on the laminated paper Pl.
The lowered state is shown at 81 in FIG.

制板６を第２図の実線の位置に戻す。In this state of S1, the sheets discharged from the sheet discharge rollers 5a and 5b do not reach the lower end 3a of the tray 3, but come into contact with the outer surface of the sheet regulating plate 6, and are stacked to form a stack of sheets P2. The lower end of the laminated paper P2 comes into contact with the outer surface of the paper regulating plate 6, so that the paper tray is shifted upward from the tray 3 with respect to the laminated paper P1, and overlaps the stacked paper PI. Further, when executing the multi-copy mode for the third document, the paper regulating plate 6 is returned to the position indicated by the solid line in FIG.

規制板６を積層用紙Ｐ５の上に下降させる。In this case, the rotary drive shaft 11 is rotated in the upward direction, but the rotary drive shaft 11 idles until the pin 14 reaches its terminal end along the groove 13. After the pin 14 comes into contact with the end of the groove 13, the lever 7 begins to swing following the rotation of the rotary drive shaft 11, and the tip 6a moves upward. By moving the paper regulating plate 6 upward again in this way,
The ejected sheets are stacked with the paper tray in contact with the outside of the main body 1 vertically above the bottom of the tray 3 @ 3a, and the stacked sheets at this time are the same as the relationship between the stacked sheets P1 and P2. The sheet P3 also overlaps the stacked sheet P2 in a state where the sheet tray is shifted upward from the tray 3. When the fourth and fifth multi-copy modes are executed consecutively following the multi-copy mode described above, the paper regulating plate 6 is
is lowered to stack the stacked paper P4 on top of the stacked paper P3, and the paper regulating plate 6 is further raised to stack the stacked paper P5 on top of the stacked paper P4. Similarly, when further sheets are to be stacked on top of the stacked paper P5, the paper regulating plate 6 is lowered onto the stacked paper P5 as shown in S3 in FIG.
