摘要:
A sheet conveying device (26), which is incorporated in an image forming apparatus, includes a sheet holding and conveying roller pair (48) to convey a sheet (20) while holding the sheet (20) at a nip (N), and a gate member (64) disposed movable with rotation of the sheet holding and conveying roller pair (48) to correct skew of the sheet (20) in a sheet conveying direction while a leading end of the sheet (20) in the sheet conveying direction abuts against the gate member (64). The gate member (64) has a contact surface (64a) against which the sheet (20) abuts. The contact surface (64a) is disposed upstream from the nip (N) of the sheet holding and conveying roller pair (48) in the sheet conveying direction. A setting position of the contact surface (64a) is adjusted according to thickness of the sheet (20).
