SHEET CONVEYING APPARATUS AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS

摘要

A sheet conveying apparatus includes: a conveying unit nipping a sheet in a nip portion to convey the sheet; a shutter unit rotated in a predetermined rotation direction by being pushed by the conveyed sheet to correct a skew of the sheet; a rotation transmitting unit configured to transmit a rotational driving force to the shutter unit to rotate the shutter unit in the predetermined rotation direction; and an urging unit configured to apply an urging force to the shutter unit so that the shutter unit comes into contact with a surface of the sheet, thereafter the shutter unit is returned to a waiting position along with the passage of a rear end of the sheet through the shutter unit after the shutter unit is rotated by the rotational driving force of the rotation transmitting unit.
