A sheet detecting apparatus including: a detection unit including a lever member (73) having an abutment surface (73a) abutting a conveying sheet and a holding member (71) configured to hold the lever member, the detection unit moved by the lever member pushed by the sheet; a first urging portion (72) configured to urge the holding member to a waiting position after the sheet is separated from the abutment surface; a support portion configured to support the lever member movable with respect to the holding member to move the lever member to a retracted position for allowing the sheet to pass the lever member contacting a surface of the sheet when the holding member is in the waiting position; and a second urging portion (74) configured to urge the lever member so that the lever member is moved from the retracted position to a position in which the abutment surface abuts a succeeding sheet. |
