A document conveying apparatus ( 1 ) includes a conveying unit ( 30 ) inside a document feeding section ( 10 ), and the conveying unit ( 30 ) includes two fans ( 34 ) for cooling the inside of the document conveying apparatus ( 1 ). The fans ( 34 ) are arranged to pass air from upstream to downstream with respect to the document conveying direction. Thus, the stream of air produced by the fan ( 34 ) flows along the document conveying direction so that a document sheet is conveyed without being affected by a braking effect. Moreover, the air stream produced by the fan ( 34 ) flows along the document conveying passage ( 13 ) both on the air intake side and the air exhaust side of the fan ( 34 ). This facilitates the conveying of a document sheet by pulling it on the air intake side of the fan ( 34 ) and pushing it on the air exhaust side of the fan ( 34 ).
