Sheet storage cassette and image forming apparatus
View Patent ↗A sheet storage cassette can include a sheet supporting board and a restriction guide. The sheet supporting board can support at least one sheet thereon. The restriction guide can be arranged on the sheet supporting board and include a sheet holding surface that is substantially perpendicular to the sheet support board. The restriction guide can further include a mark indicated part at an upper side thereof, where the mark indicated part can extend at least partly along a plane that intersects a plane of the holding surface and can indicate a maximum storage capacity level of the sheet storage cassette.
1. A sheet storage cassette, comprising:
a movable restriction guide arranged on a base of the sheet storage cassette, and configured to restrict a position of at least one sheet on the sheet storage cassette,
wherein the restriction guide includes a first plane and a second plane that is formed so as to be substantially parallel to the first plane, and so as to have difference in level with respect to the first plane, and
the first plane includes a mark indicating a level of a maximum storage capacity of the sheet storage cassette;
wherein
the first plane and the second plane are substantially parallel to the base, and
the first plane is closer to the base than is the second plane.
2. The storage cassette of claim 1 , wherein
the restriction guide further includes a third plane that is substantially perpendicular to the base, and
the first plane and the second plane are connected to the third plane at an upper part of the third plane.
3. The storage cassette of claim 1 , wherein the mark includes a triangular recess.
4. An image forming apparatus, comprising:
the sheet storage cassette according to claim 1 .
