SHEET CONVEYING DEVICE AND RECORDING APPARATUS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To favorably correct skewing by using a guide and an obliquely conveying means even if a sheet is conveyed by a conveying means. SOLUTION: A sheet conveying device has: a conveying means for conveying a sheet; a guide that is disposed downstream of the conveying means in a conveying direction, guiding one side end of the conveyed sheet while being in contact with a side end; a feeding means that obliquely conveys the sheet closer to the guide; a pressing means that presses the conveyed sheet in a direction in which the sheet moves away from the guide; and a control means that controls the pressing means and the feeding means so that the feeding means nips the pressed sheet to form a loop in the sheet between the conveying means and the feeding means and then conveys the sheet while the side end of the sheet is in sliding contact with the guide.
