Abstract: An electric paper tray includes a base, a paper holding element pivotally mounted to at least one side of the base, a power unit arranged at the base, and a lifting module connected between the paper holding element and the power unit. The lifting module is movably mounted under the paper holding element. When the lifting module is driven by the power unit to move to a first position, with respect to the base, the lifting module drives the paper holding element to make the paper holding element rotate to a closed position, when the lifting module is driven by the power unit to move to a second position, with respect to the base, the lifting module drives the paper holding element to make the paper holding element rotate to an opened position.

Abstract: A driving device used in a paper separation mechanism includes an internal gear, an external gear sheathed around the internal gear, a shell of which an inner front face protrudes backward to form a hollow cylinder which the internal gear is sheathed around, an elastic element restrained between a front end of the internal gear and the inner front face of the shell, and a driving member rotatably on the rear of the shell. The driving device utilizes the cooperation of a guide block of the internal gear and a guide groove of spiral shape of the hollow cylinder, the cooperation of a locking arm of the shell and an outer ratchet of the external gear, the cooperation of a slope of the external gear and pushing blocks of the driving member to make a clockwise rotation angle of the driving member be greater than a counterclockwise rotation angle.
