Abstract: When a sheet is brought into a sheet storage section (12), a fan 126 creates an air current towards the sheet storage part (12), and when the sheet is discharged from the sheet storage section (12), the fan stops air blow. Whereby, the conveyance of the sheet to the sheet storage section (12) is guided, and discharging of the sheet from the sheet storage section is smoothly carried out.

Abstract: In a sheet aligning apparatus, a sheet is conveyed from a conveying-in path into a sheet storing section through an open end portion and the leading end of the sheet comes in with a stop member. Thereafter, when a shifting section shifts the stop member from an initial position to a first position, the sheet is shifted inversely together with the stop member and the back end of the sheet proceeds as the inversed leading end from the open end portion to a conveying-out path so that a succeeding sheet is allowed to be conveyed from the conveying-in path into the open end portion. When the sheet is shifted inversely, a shift regulating section regulates the shift of the sheet in such a way that the back end of the sheet is prevented from proceeding more than a predetermined distance due to the inertia of the shift.
