To provide a feeder capable of feeding record mediums while positively separating them one by one from a loading part.SOLUTION: A feeder is adapted to feed record mediums S placed on a loading part 5A outward from the loading part 5A by a rotation of a feed roller 32 abutting against them. The fed record mediums S are separated into one record medium S and other record mediums S by a separation member 52, and then the one record medium S is carried by transport means. The record mediums S separated from the one record medium S are returned to the loading part 5A by a return member 59. Thereafter, the feed roller 32 in a spaced position is stopped and a movement operation of contacting the record medium S placed on the loading part 5A is performed by feed-roller moving means, completing the feed operation.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 15 【課題】積載部から確実に１枚ずつ記録媒体を分離しつつ給送することが可能な給送装置の提供を目的とする。【解決手段】積載部５Ａに積載された記録媒体Ｓは、これに当接する給送ローラ３２の回転によって積載部５Ａから外方へと給送される。給送された記録媒体Ｓは分離部材５２によって１枚の記録媒体Ｓと、それ以外の記録媒体Ｓとに分離された後、１枚の記録媒体Ｓは搬送手段によって搬送される。１枚の記録媒体Ｓから分離された記録媒体Ｓは、戻し部材５９によって積載部５Ａへと戻される。その後、離間位置にある給送ローラ３２を停止させ、積載部５Ａに積載されている記録媒体Ｓに接触させる移動動作を給送ローラ移動手段によって行い、給送動作を完了させる。【選択図】図１５
