Reproducing apparatus and retractable feeding apparatus thereof
Abstract
A reproducing apparatus and a retractable feeding apparatus thereof. The reproducing apparatus comprises a body and a retractable feeding apparatus. The body comprises a feeding portion and a feeding opening formed on the feeding portion. The retractable feeding apparatus has a tray movable between a retracted position and a stretched position. The tray includes a rotation shaft and a supporting surface. When the tray is disposed in the retracted position, the tray is received in the feeding portion, and the supporting surface faces the feeding portion. When the tray is disposed in the stretch position, the tray is rotatable between a retracted angle and a feeding angle by the rotation shaft, and the supporting surface aligns to a feeding opening in the feeding angle.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A reproducing apparatus, comprising:
a body comprising a feeding portion; and a retractable feeding mechanism disposed on the feeding portion, the retractable feeding mechanism comprising a tray movable between a retracted position and a stretched position, the tray comprising a rotation shaft; wherein, when the tray is disposed in the retracted position, the tray is received in the feeding portion so that the tray and the feeding portion form a flat surface; when the tray is disposed in the stretch position, the tray is rotatable between a retracted angle and a feeding angle by the rotation shaft.
2 . The reproducing apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the feeding portion is perpendicular to a disposing surface of the body.
3 . The reproducing apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the feeding portion comprises a feeding opening, the tray covers the feeding opening when the tray is disposed in the retracted position.
4 . The reproducing apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the feeding portion comprises a receiving portion, when the tray is disposed in the retracted position, the tray is received in the receiving portion.
5 . The reproducing apparatus as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the receiving portion comprises a sliding notch, and the tray is movable between the retracted position and the stretched position along the sliding notch.
6 . The reproducing apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the tray comprises:
a primary tray; and a sub tray movable between a retracted tray position and a stretched tray position relative to the primary tray.
7 . The reproducing apparatus as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the sub tray is completely received in the primary tray when the sub tray is disposed in the retracted tray position.
8 . The reproducing apparatus as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the primary tray comprises a sliding rail, and the sub tray is movable on the sliding rail between the retracted tray position and the stretched tray position.
9 . A retractable feeding apparatus used for a reproducing apparatus with a receiving portion thereon, the feeding apparatus comprising:
a tray movable between a retracted position and a stretched position in relation to the receiving portion, the tray comprising a rotation shaft; wherein, when the tray is disposed in the retracted position, the tray is received in the receiving portion; when the tray is disposed in the stretch position, the tray is rotatable between a retracted angle and a feeding angle by the rotation shaft.
10 . The retractable feeding apparatus as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the tray covers the receiving portion when the tray is disposed in the retracted position.
11 . The retractable feeding apparatus as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the receiving portion comprises a sliding notch, and the tray is movable between the retracted position and the stretched position along the sliding notch.
12 . The retractable feeding apparatus as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the tray comprises:
a primary tray; and a sub tray movable between a retracted tray position and a stretched tray position on the primary tray.
13 . The retractable feeding apparatus as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the sub tray is completely retracted on the primary tray when the sub tray is disposed in the retracted tray position.
14 . The retractable feeding apparatus as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the primary tray comprises a sliding rail, and the sub tray moves on the sliding rail between the retracted tray position and the stretched tray position.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
