According to an embodiment, a sheet conveying device includes: a first roller configured to correct a tilt of a sheet to be conveyed; a first detecting unit located further on an upstream side in a conveying direction of the sheet than the first roller and configured to detect information concerning double-feed of the sheet; a second roller configured to convey the sheet to the first roller; a driving unit configured to drive the second roller; and a controller configured to control the driving unit to thereby temporarily stop the conveyance of the sheet in order to perform the detection by the first detecting unit in a state in which an end of the sheet on a downstream side in the conveying direction of the sheet is located further on the upstream side in the conveying direction of the sheet than a nip position of the first roller.
A sheet conveying device comprising:
An image forming apparatus comprising:
A method of detecting double-feed of a sheet comprising performing double-feed detection for the sheet in a state in which an end of the sheet on a downstream side in a conveying direction of the sheet is located further on an upstream side in the conveying direction of the sheet than a nip position of a roller configured to correct a tilt of the sheet.
