Abstract: A card feeding device for feeding a rectangular card along a card feeding direction that intersects a line across the width of the card at a right angle. The card feeding device includes a guide mechanism for leading guide portions provided at side edges of the card along the card feeding direction, a drive roller for elastically contacting a first side edge of the card, and a facing roller positioned opposite to the drive roller for freely and rotatably contacting a second side edge of the card opposite the first side edge of the card contacted by the drive roller. An axis of rotation of the drive roller is displaced, in a direction opposite to the card feeding direction, from an axis of rotation of the facing roller, such that the drive roller and the facing roller hold the card and feed the card directly in the card feeding direction.
