Abstract:
A document conveying device includes an inversion path, a lift member, a drive source, a conveying part, a detection part and a control part. The lift member forms an upper side face of the inversion path. The drive source moves the lift member upward and downward in the inversion path. The conveying part is pushed up by the uppermost document, and rotates to feed the uppermost document. The detection part detects a height of the conveying part. The control part executes an overload feeding mode in which whether the document is overloaded is determined based on a detection result of the detection part, when an overload is determined, the lift member is moved downward until the overload is not determined, the drive source moves the lift member upward until the conveying part is pushed up to an optimum feeding height, and then the uppermost document is fed.

Claim (Index 1):
A document conveying device comprising:\n an inversion path inverting a conveying direction of a document; a lift member on which the document is placed, the lift member forming a part of an upper side face of the inversion path; a drive source moving the lift member upward and downward in the inversion path; a conveying part coming into contact with an uppermost document of the document placed on the lift member, being pushed up by the uppermost document, and rotating to feed the uppermost document; a detection part detecting a height of the conveying part; and a control part executing an overload feeding mode in which whether the document is overloaded or not is determined based on a detection result of the detection part, when an overload of the document is determined, the lift member is moved downward until the overload is not determined, the drive source is driven to move the lift member upward until the conveying part is pushed up to an optimum feeding height by the uppermost document, and then the uppermost document is fed wherein when the overload of the document is determined based on the detection result of the detecting part, the control part decreases a rotating period of the conveying part.
