Sheet conveying device and image reading device
A sheet conveying device includes a conveyor, a supporting section which supports a sheet to be fed to the conveyor and a guide section which is provided on the supporting section and configured to guide a sheet to the conveyor. The supporting section includes a first support region and a second support region which support a sheet. The first support region is provided at a position on an upstream side from the second support region in a sheet conveyance direction. The first support region extends substantially horizontally, and the second support region is inclined in a lower direction toward the downstream side in the conveyance direction. The guide section includes a first portion which extends substantially horizontally along the first support region, and a second portion which is connected to the first portion and extends obliquely in the lower direction along the second support region.

PRINTER DEVICE
A printer device includes: a recessed accommodation part accommodating a roll-shaped continuous paper; a pair of rack gears arranged in a staircase-like shape on a paper conveyance direction side of the continuous paper, and having tooth rows arranged in a first direction orthogonal to the paper conveyance direction so as to face each other; a pinion gear arranged between the pair of rack gears and fitting into the tooth rows of the pair of rack gears, and a pair of paper guides respectively provided at one end portion of an upper rack gear in the first direction and anther end portion of a lower rack gear in the first direction, and supporting side surfaces of the continuous paper accommodated in the accommodation part. The pair of paper guides perform an opening or closing movement in the first direction by the pair of rack gears and the pinion gear.

IMAGE READING DEVICE, MULTI-FEED DETECTING METHOD, AND MULTI-FEED DETECTING PROGRAM
An image reading device includes: a transport unit configured to transport a medium; an emission unit configured to emit an ultrasonic wave in accordance with a driving voltage and a reception unit configured to receive the ultrasonic wave, the emission unit and the reception unit being disposed so that a transport path for the medium transported by the transport unit is interposed therebetween; a reading unit configured to read the medium; and a control unit configured to detect presence or absence of multi-feed of the medium on the basis of a signal received by the reception unit. The image reading device is configured to switch a posture into any of a first posture or a second posture. The first posture is a posture in which the transport path is sloped relative to a mounting surface. The second posture is a posture in which an angle of the transport path relative to the mounting surface is smaller than that in the first posture. The control unit sets a first driving voltage as the driving voltage when the posture is the first posture, and sets a second driving voltage lower than the first driving voltage as the driving voltage when the posture is the second posture.

Sheet feeding cartridge and image forming apparatus
A sheet feeding cartridge storing a sheet conveyed orthogonally to a width direction includes a main body, a pair of side cursors and a restricting member. The main body has a bottom part including a sheet placement face and allows sheets of different sizes to be placed. The side cursors mutually slide in approaching and separating directions and restrict a position in the width direction. The restricting member comes into contact with a side edge in the width direction at a position separated from one of the side cursors to an upstream side in a conveyance direction and restricts the position in the width direction. The restricting member is attachably/detachably provided in the main body at each of plural positions along the width direction and restricts the side edge of each of the sheets of different sizes in the width direction.
