Sheet take-out apparatus

A sheet take-out apparatus comprising:

• a table configured to make contact with lower end sides of a plurality of sheets and loading them in an upright state;
• a backup plate configured to press and convey the plurality of sheets loaded on the table in a direction of faces of the sheets, thereby supply the sheets to a take-out position;
• a first floor belt installed so as to be exposed from the table to move the exposed part toward the take-out position in a conveying direction of the sheets, thereby move the lower end sides of the sheets toward the take-out position;
• a second floor belt installed in a neighborhood of the take-out position from the first floor belt so as to be exposed from the table to move the exposed part toward the take-out position in the conveying direction of the sheets, thereby move the lower end sides of the sheets toward the take-out position;
• take-out means for taking out the sheets supplied to the take-out position in a direction almost perpendicular to the conveying direction of the sheets;
• detection means for detecting a posture of the sheets supplied to the take-out position;
• and
• control means, on the basis of detection results by the detection means, for controlling a moving speed of at least one of the first and second floor belts and correcting the posture of the sheets supplied to the take-out position.
