A conveyance device to convey a sheet includes an apparatus main body including a regulating portion, an opening/closing door including a first guide portion, and a conveyance guide supported by the opening/closing door and having a second guide portion and a regulated portion. The opening/closing door moves relative to the apparatus main body between an open position and a closed position where the conveyance guide is placed between the apparatus main body and the opening/closing door. When the conveyance guide pivots in an away direction where the second guide portion moves away from the first guide portion with the opening/closing door in the open position, the regulated portion contacts the regulating portion to regulate rotation of the conveyance guide in the away direction. The second guide portion and the regulated portion are on one side of a pivot axis in a direction that is perpendicular to a pivot axis direction.

A sheet conveying device includes a sheet detection unit and a position adjusting mechanism. The position adjusting mechanism is disposed on a downstream side of the sheet detection unit in a sheet conveying direction in the sheet conveying path, includes an adjusting roller pair, and performs skew correction and positional displacement correction of a sheet, while conveying the sheet. The sheet conveying path includes a first conveying roller pair disposed on an upstream side of the position adjusting mechanism in the sheet conveying direction, and a curved part disposed between the adjusting roller pair and the first conveying roller pair, which curves in an S shape so as to be convex in a front and back side direction of the sheet alternately at different positions in the sheet conveying direction. The adjusting roller pair nips and conveys the sheet together with the first conveying roller pair.

A medium-transport apparatus includes: an apparatus main body having the transport path for transporting the medium; and a cover CV provided on the side surface of the apparatus main body and configured to be switched between a first state of exposing the transport path and a second state of covering the transport path. The cover CV is divided into: a first cover that has the rotation shaft along a Z-axis and is rotatable with respect to the apparatus main body; and a second cover that is arranged on a −Z side of the first cover, has the rotation shaft along a Y-axis on the Z− side, and is rotatable with respect to the apparatus main body.

A sheet conveyance apparatus includes a cover unit, a base unit, a roller unit configured to be detachable from the cover unit, and comprising a roller configured to convey the sheet along a conveyance path and a holder comprising an arm portion configured to extend in a width direction orthogonal to a sheet conveyance direction, a cam configured to swing the holder by rotating, and a cover member configured to be openable and closable with respect to the cover unit and configured to cover at least a portion of the arm portion against the conveyance path in a closed state, the cover member being opened by being pressed by the arm portion in a case where the roller unit is detached from the cover unit.

An example jam removal structure can include a transporting roller transporting a print medium along a transporting path, an Inner-side guide, and first and second guides facing the inner-side guide to form the transporting path and located in an upstream side and a downstream side of the transporting roller based on a transport direction of the print medium to be rotatable to an open position opening the transporting path and a path formation position forming the transporting path. The example jam removal structure can include an operating lever connected to each of the first and second guides by first and second connecting members to switch the first and second guides to the open position or the path formation position and an elastic member applying an elastic force to the first and second guides in a direction rotating toward the path formation position.

A sheet conveyer, including a body with a conveyer path, a first roller, a second roller, a roller holder supporting the second roller rotatably, an urging member urging the roller holder, and a guide member, is provided. The guide member is supported rotatably by the body at a position on a side opposite to the first roller across the second roller is pivotable between a closed position and an open position. The roller holder is movable between a first position, where the second roller contacts the first roller, and a second position, where the second roller is separated from the first roller and in which the roller holder contacts the guide member located at the open position. The roller holder located at the second position is restricted by the guide member from moving farther from the first position. The urging member urges the roller holder toward the first position.

A recording medium feeder includes: a first cassette and a second cassette that are disposed side by side in a cross direction and can be pulled out in the same pull-out direction; a housing that houses the first cassette and the second cassette; a transport unit that is disposed above the second cassette in the housing and transports a recording medium sent from the first cassette; and a feeding unit that is disposed in the housing and feeds a recording medium stored in the first cassette toward the transport unit, wherein the transport unit can be pulled out in the same direction as the first cassette and the second cassette, the feeding unit includes a first roller and a second roller that sandwich and transport a recording medium, and the first roller or the second roller releases the sandwiching when the first cassette is pulled out.
