Sheet Feeding Device

A sheet feeding device comprising:

• a main body comprising a feeding unit configured to feed a sheet in a feeding direction to a conveying path along which the sheet is conveyed;
• a cover configured to pivot about a first axis relative to the main body between a closed position in which the cover closes the conveying path and an open position in which the cover exposes the conveying path;
• and
• a plate configured to pivot about a second axis which is parallel to the first axis and to contact and move away from the feeding unit,
• wherein the second axis is closer to the cover than to the feeding unit in the feeding direction, and
• wherein in a state in which the cover is in the closed position, at least a part of the cover is positioned on an upper side of the plate so as to be contactable with the plate.
