Abstract:
A sheet feeding apparatus includes a sheet storage portion, a sheet supporting member that is liftable, and a damper mechanism including a resistance member and a movable portion movable by abutting against a body of the apparatus. The damper mechanism resists, at least temporarily, relative movement of the movable portion and the sheet storage portion by applying resistive force produced by the resistance member to the movable portion in a case where the sheet storage portion is inserted to the body, and resists, at least temporarily, lowering movement of the sheet supporting member by applying resistive force produced by the resistance member to the sheet supporting portion in a case where the sheet storage portion with the sheet supporting member having been lifted by the lift portion is drawn out of the body.

Claim (Index 4):
The sheet feeding apparatus according to  claim 3 ,\n wherein the resistance member comprises a first movable member and a second movable member movable with respect to the first movable member, and is configured to produce resistive force that resists relative movement of the first and second movable members, wherein the first transmission portion comprises a first abutment portion configured to move along with movement of the movable portion and to abut against the first movable member, wherein the second transmission portion comprises a second abutment portion configured to move along with movement of the sheet supporting member and to abut against the second movable member, and wherein the damper mechanism is configured to apply resistive force produced by the resistance member to the movable portion such that the first abutment portion moves the first movable member in a state where the second movable member is restricted from moving by the second abutment portion, and is configured to apply resistive force produced by the resistance member to the sheet supporting member such that the second abutment portion moves the second movable member in a state where the first movable member is restricted from moving by the first abutment portion.
