SHEET FEEDING APPARATUS ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Sheet feeding apparatuses and reproducing machines employing such apparatuses are provided including one or more of the following embodiments. In accordance with one embodiment a stop means is provided for intercepting an edge of the sheet to allow a buckle to form in the sheet. Chute means are pro- vided for guiding the sheet during the buckling, The chute means is movably mounted and connected to the stop means so that it moves in the sheet feeding direction as the stop means moves out of sheet blocking relationship. In another embodiment the apparatus includes a buckle assisting means for flattening the buckle comprising a plurality of members biased against the buckle which are spaced apart along the transverse width of the sheet. In another embodiment two sheet feeding means are employed which feed sheets to the same stop means and a buckle assisting means is provided for flattening a buckle formed in a sheet fed from either sheet feeding means. In another embodi- ment the buckle assisting means comprises a flexible member which is slack for guiding the sheet during buckle formation and which is pulled taut to assist in flattening the buckle. - 1 -
