Abstract
A sheet feeding device includes a sheet tray, a feeder to feed the uppermost sheet of a sheet bundle supported by a supporting surface of the sheet tray; a blowing portion provided on one side in a widthwise direction perpendicular to a feeding direction and to blow air through a blowing opening toward a side edge of the sheet bundle supported by the supporting surface; and a rotatable portion. The rotatable portion is rotatably provided opposite to the blowing opening in the widthwise direction and to the sheet tray, and is rotatable between a first position along the supporting surface and a second position rotated upward from the supporting surface by the air being blown by the blowing portion. When the rotatable portion is positioned in the second position, the rotatable portion includes a restricting portion to restrict the air from being blown to the supporting surface.
