Abstract
Abstract The present invention relates to a copying machine so composed that copying paper can be continuously fed from the stock section regardless of the movemental timing of the resist section, which has been so improved that the paper feeding speed or the paper feeding interval of the copying paper can be controlled in response to the relative scanning time of the optical system for a document.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
60 words
A copying machine so composed that copying paper can be consecutively fed from the stock section thereof regardless of the movemental timing of the resist section thereof characterized by that the paper feeding speed or the paper feeding interval of the copying paper can be controlled in response to the relative scanning time of the optical system for a document.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
60 words
A copying machine so composed that copying paper can be consecutively fed from the stock section thereof regardless of the movemental timing of the resist section thereof characterized by that the paper feeding speed or the paper feeding interval of the copying paper can be controlled in response to the relative scanning time of the optical system for a document.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
19 words
A copying machine claimed in the claim 1, wherein the scanning time can be measured whenever conducting copying jobs.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
25 words
A copying machine claimed in the claim 2, wherein the paper feeding speed or the paper feeding interval can be controlled whenever conducting copying jobs.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
42 words
A copying machine claimed in the claim 1, wherein in the case that the scanning time is equal to or longer than the time of paper feeding interval, the time of paper feeding interval can be agreed with the above scanning time.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
50 words
A copying machine claimed in the claim 4, wherein in the case that the scanning time is shorter than the time of paper feeding interval and is longer than the minimum time of paper feeding interval, the time of the paper feeding interval can be agreed with the scanning time.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
46 words
A copying machine claimed in the claim 5, wherein in the case that the scanning time is equal to or shorter than the minimum time of the paper feeding interval, the time of paper feeding interval is agreed with the minimum time of paper feeding interval.
