<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a recording medium conveying device capable of increasing suction force for suctioning a small size recording medium toward a conveying belt.SOLUTION: A conveying belt 320 comprises multiple suction holes 320a punched, and a suction unit 330 disposed on one surface side of the conveying belt. The suction unit includes: a unit case 331 having housing chambers 333A, 333B, and 333C that are adjacent to each other in a sheet conveying direction while partitioned by partition walls 332A and 332B extending in a width direction of the conveying belt; a top wall 335 disposed between the unit case and the conveying belt; and a fan 338 housed in each of the housing chambers that are adjacent to each other. The top wall has a slit group S through which each of the housing chambers communicates with the suction holes. The slit group includes a plurality of slits striding over the partition walls 332A and 332B. The slits striding over the partition walls include a slit communicating with one of the housing chambers that are adjacent to each other, and a slit communicating with the other of the housing chambers that are adjacent to each other.</p> |
