Abstract
A belt conveying device is configured such that if belt deviation in which a belt moves in a direction separated from a predetermined position is detected by a belt position detection mechanism, a control unit controls a driving unit to make a steering roller to be tilted intermittently in a direction to correct the belt deviation and, if it is detected by the belt position detection mechanism that a moving direction of the belt has changed to a direction to approach the predetermined position in a suspension period between the intermittent tilting operation, suspends the subsequent tilting of the steering roller.
