Abstract:
A sheet conveying device includes a sheet cassette including a first housing, a pressing plate, a raising plate, a first resilient member, and a second resilient member. The sheet conveying device further includes a second housing, a sheet-cassette accommodating portion, a first electrode, a second electrode, a sheet conveyor, a driver, a first signal output device, and a second signal output device. When controlling the driver to move the raising plate to move the pressing plate upward, the controller detects a state change in the first signal output device from not outputting a conduction signal to outputting the conduction signal; upon this detection, starts counting the number of pulse signals; and determines an amount of upward movement of the pressing plate based on the counted number.

Claim (Index 2):
The sheet conveying device according to  claim 1 ,\n wherein the sheet cassette is movable between an accommodated position at which the sheet cassette is accommodated in the second housing and a separated position at which the sheet cassette is separated from the second housing, and wherein when the sheet cassette is located at the separated position:\n the first electrode is spaced from the second end portion of the first resilient member, and the second electrode is spaced from the second end portion of the second resilient member; \n the transmission mechanism is unable to transmit to the raising plate the driving force supplied from the motor; and \n the pressing plate is located at a lowest position thereof, and the raising plate is located at the spaced position.
