Abstract
A rotary arm restricts the rotation of a first sun gear or a second sun gear according to forward/reverse rotation drive of sheet discharge rollers. As a result, a rotating direction of a transmission gear coupled to the sheet discharge rollers is switched. If θ1A denotes a pressure angle of gear teeth of a gear portion of the first sun gear and θ2A denotes a pressure angle of gear teeth of a first planetary gear, a relationship of θ2A+0.5°≤θ1A≤θ2A+1.5° is satisfied.
