Sheet conveyor device and image recording device

A sheet conveyor device comprising:

• a first housing having a sheet conveyance path;
• a second housing disposed above the first housing and pivotable about a first rotational axis between a first position and a second position, the second housing having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface, the second surface being adjacent the first housing when the second housing is in the first position;
• a sheet support member connected to the first housing, the sheet support member having a sheet inlet communicating with the conveyance path;
• a cover disposed on the sheet support member and situated below the first surface of the second housing, the cover being movable between a first state and a second state;
• and
• an interlock mechanism contacting the second housing and the cover to move the cover between the first state and the second state in response to movement of the second housing between the first position and the second position.

An image recording device comprising:

• a first housing having a conveyance path;
• a recording portion disposed along the conveyance path to record an image on a sheet in the conveyance path;
• a second housing pivotably disposed above the first housing and movable between a first position at which the second housing is adjacent to an upper side of the first housing and a second position at which the second housing is angled relative to the upper side of the first housing;
• a sheet support member connected to the first housing, the sheet support member having a sheet inlet communicating with the conveyance path;
• a cover disposed on the sheet support member to pivot about a first rotational axis between a first state and a second state;
• and
• an interlock mechanism pivotable about a second rotational axis that is parallel to the first rotational axis in response to movement of the second housing between the first position and the second position to move the cover between the first state and the second state.
