Abstract:
A sheet conveying apparatus includes a cover unit opened and closed with respect to an apparatus body and a guide unit including first and second movable guides respectively movable with respect to the apparatus body. A first conveyance path is formed between the first guide portion and the first movable guide, and a second conveyance path is formed between the second guide portion and the second movable guide. The guide unit is provided with a linking mechanism including an intermediate member for linking the first and second movable guides. The linking mechanism coordinates movements of the first and second movable guides such that the first and second movable guides are respectively moved away from the first and second guide portions along with an opening movement of the cover unit with respect to the apparatus body.

Claim (Index 1):
A sheet conveying apparatus comprising:\n an apparatus body provided with a first guide portion and a second guide portion; a cover unit configured to be opened and closed with respect to the apparatus body; a sheet conveyance portion configured to convey a sheet; and a guide unit configured to guide the sheet conveyed by the sheet conveyance portion, the guide unit comprising:\n a first movable guide supported movably by the apparatus body and configured such that a first conveyance path through which the sheet conveyed by the sheet conveyance portion passes is formed between the first guide portion and the first movable guide; \n a second movable guide being movable with respect to the apparatus body and configured such that a second conveyance path through which the sheet conveyed by the sheet conveyance portion passes is formed between the second guide portion and the second movable guide; and \n a linking mechanism comprising an intermediate member through which the first and second movable guides are linked movably with respect to each other, the linking mechanism being configured to coordinate movements of the first and second movable guides through an intermediary of the intermediate member such that the first and second movable guides are respectively moved away from the first and second guide portions along with an opening movement of the cover unit with respect to the apparatus body from a state where the first and second conveyance paths are formed respectively between the first movable guide and the first guide portion and between the second movable guide and the second guide portion.
