Abstract
A sheet feeding apparatus includes a damper mechanism having a movable portion supported by a sheet storage portion and movable with respect to the sheet storage portion by abutting against a body in a case where the sheet storage portion is inserted to the body, and a resistance member. In addition, a first transmission portion actuates the resistance member to produce a resistive force and transmits the resistive force so that an insertion speed of the sheet storage portion is reduced when the sheet storage portion is inserted to the body, and a second transmission actuates the resistance member to produce the resistive force and transmits the resistive force so that a lowering speed of the sheet supporting member is reduced when the sheet storage portion with the sheet supporting member having been lifted by a lift portion is drawn out of the body.
