Abstract
A sheet feeding device includes a rotation shaft that rotates in synchronism with rotation of the feed member, a spring clutch that is deformable to be in a tightened state and to be in a loosened state, and a pressure-receiving member that becomes displaced from a first position to a second position by receiving a pressing force that is generated as the spring clutch swings. The spring clutch starts to be loosened from the tightened state as a first end portion of the spring clutch becomes engaged with an engagement portion when the pressure-receiving member is displaced to the second position.
