Patent ID: 8171976

Claim:
A transferring device comprising: a transferring device main body having a transferring portion transferring a transfer object to a transferred object including a paper; and a transferred object receiving cradle additionally provided in the transferring device main body; and the transferring device being structured such that the transfer object is transferred to the transferred object by being slid in a predetermined transferring direction in a state in which the transferred object is pinched between the transferring device main body and the transferred object receiving cradle, wherein the transferring device comprises: a guide surface capable of guiding the transferred object in the same direction as the transferring direction at a time of the sliding movement by being brought into contact with an edge portion of the transferred object; deflection rollers capable of energizing the transferred object toward the guide surface at a time of the sliding movement by being arranged so as to be deflected at a predetermined angle toward the guide surface from the transferring direction; a rotational moving mechanism for relatively moving between a pinching enablement position, and an exposing position, said pinching enablement position is configured so as to pinch the transferred object by rotationally moving the transferred object receiving cradle with respect to the transferring device main body in the predetermined direction, said exposing position is configured so that a leading end portion of the transferring portion is exposed; and a concave surface for preventing interference among said deflection rollers in said pinching enablement position, wherein the transferring portion is positioned at a front end portion of the transferring device and the rotational moving mechanism is positioned at a rear end portion of the transferring device.
