A document conveyance device according to the present disclosure includes a document conveyance path, a first actuator, a second actuator, and an optical sensor. The first actuator is disposed in the document conveyance path. The second actuator is disposed on a more downstream side than the first actuator in the document conveyance path in the document conveyance direction. An output state of the optical sensor is switched based on pivoting of the first actuator and second actuator. A tip end of the document passes the first actuator, whereby the optical sensor outputs a first output indicating a first state, the tip end of the document passes the second actuator, whereby the optical sensor outputs a second output indicating a second state, and a rear end of the document passes the first actuator, whereby the optical sensor outputs the first output. |

1. A document conveyance device comprising:
a document conveyance path through which a document passes, a first actuator that is disposed in the document conveyance path and pivots in a predetermined direction by being butted by the document, a second actuator that is disposed on a more downstream side than the first actuator in the document conveyance path in a document conveyance direction and pivots in the predetermined direction by being butted by the document, an optical sensor whose output state is switched based on the pivoting of the first actuator and second actuator, a pickup roller that rotates by being pressed against an uppermost surface of a plurality of the documents loaded and sends the documents, a sheet feeding roller that separates and conveys the documents sent from the pickup roller, a conveyance roller pair that is disposed on a downstream side from the sheet feeding roller in the document conveyance direction and conveys the documents, and a reading portion that is disposed on a downstream side from the conveyance roller pair in the document conveyance direction and reads images on the documents,wherein the optical sensor outputs:
a first output indicating a first state in which the document does not pass the first actuator and the second actuator, the first output in a state in which a tip end of the document passes the first actuator, whereby only the first actuator of the first actuator and second actuator pivots in the predetermined direction, a second output indicating a second state, different from the first state, in which the tip end of the document passes the second actuator, whereby both the first actuator and the second actuator pivot in the predetermined direction, the first output in a state in which a rear end of the document passes the first actuator, whereby the first actuator pivots in a direction opposite to the predetermined direction and the second actuator pivots in the predetermined direction, the first actuator is disposed between the sheet feeding roller and the conveyance roller pair, and the second actuator is disposed between the conveyance roller pair and the reading portion. |
