ABSTRACT:
A sheet conveying apparatus for conveying a sheet having an image formed thereon includes: a first rotator; a second rotator that comes into pressure contact with the first rotator and contacts a surface of the sheet having the image formed thereon; and a plurality of ribs that are formed on a circumferential surface of the second rotator and disposed in an axial direction so as to be continuous in a circumferential direction. Among the plurality of ribs, the ribs disposed at both ends of the second rotator in the axial direction have a diameter that is smaller than those of the other ribs.
