Abstract: A sheet conveying device includes: a conveyor; a first supporter for supporting an unsupplied sheet; a second supporter for supporting a discharged sheet; and a side guide contactable with an edge portion of the sheet supported by the first supporter. The first supporter has a first part located over the second supporter, with the first part and the second supporter being spaced apart from each other. The first part at least partly constitutes a first tray movable between an open position and a closed position. The side guide is provided on the first tray. The first tray is configured such that when the first tray is located at the closed position, the first supporter supports the unsupplied sheet, and when the first tray is located at the open position, a portion of the second supporter is exposed.

Abstract: An image reading device includes a support portion having a cover surface and an opposing first support surface, the support portion pivotable between open and closed positions, wherein in the closed position, the cover surface is an upper cover of the image reading device. The image reading device further includes a second support portion pivotable between open and closed positions, wherein in the closed position, the second support portion is positioned below the support portion.

Abstract: An image reading device includes a conveying unit, an upper support portion, a lower support portion, and a read unit. The upper support portion and the lower support portion are positioned so as to at least partially overlap and be spaced apart from each other vertically. The upper support portion has a first upper support farthest from the conveying unit, a second upper support closer to the conveying unit than the first upper support, and a third upper support closer to the conveying unit than the second upper support. The second upper support is movable between a closed position and an open position, positioned to support a sheet in the closed position and to expose at least a part of the lower support portion in the open position, and having an upper surface in the closed position that lacks a sheet guide.

Abstract: A sheet transport device includes a transport roller which transports a sheet, a cover which covers the transport roller, a pinch roller attached to the cover via a shaft facing the transport roller, and a regulation member projecting from a facing surface, facing the transport roller, of the cover and configured to regulate a movement of the shaft in an extending direction of the shaft. The regulation member includes a surface which extends along the extending direction of the shaft, a first end portion fixed to the cover, and a second end portion which faces an end face of the shaft, and is located closer to the end face of the shaft than the first end portion in the extending direction of the shaft.

Abstract: An image processing device includes a housing with a sheet conveyor situated in the housing. An interlock mechanism includes a first engagement member extending from a second surface of a first cover; and a second engagement member extending from a second surface of a second cover. One of the first and second engagement members is engagable with the other of the first and second engagement members. When the first cover moves from a first position to a second position, the first and second engagement members engage to move one end portion of the second cover in response to a movement of the first engagement member away from the second cover, and when the first cover moves from the second position to the first position, the first engagement member engages the second engagement member to move the second cover to a first position.
