Accommodating device and image forming apparatus

An accommodating device includes a device body, an accommodating unit that accommodates a medium in the device body, and an expanding and contracting member that expands and contracts to connect the accommodating unit to the device body so as to be pulled out and has a part fixed to the accommodating unit on an inner side with respect to a side surface of the accommodating unit in an intersecting direction with a pulling direction of the accommodating unit and on a lower side of the accommodating unit in a vertical direction.

Image forming apparatus
11040843 · 2021-06-22 · ·

According to one embodiment, an image forming apparatus includes a process unit, a first rotator, a second rotator, a driving force transmission mechanism, and a displacement mechanism. The process unit forms an image. The first rotator is rotatable about a shaft in a first direction and a second direction reverse to the first direction. The second rotator is disposed in parallel to the first rotator. The second rotator is detachably connected to the process unit. The driving force transmission mechanism transmits a driving force of the first rotator to the second rotator to rotate the second rotator about a shaft when the first rotator is rotated in the first direction. The displacement mechanism releases the connection between the second rotator and the process unit by displacing the second rotator in a shaft direction when the first rotator is rotated in the second direction.

A sheet housing device includes a sheet cassette, a frame, and a support member. The frame is configured to support the sheet cassette such that the sheet cassette is movable relative to the frame between a closed position and a drawn-out position along a first direction different from a gravity direction. The support member is configured to support the frame such that the frame is rotatable around a pivot axis extending in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction and the gravity direction.

Container member and image forming apparatus

A container member includes a container body that contains a recording medium and that tilts with respect to a horizontal direction such that a leading edge of the contained recording medium is higher than a trailing edge, a trailing edge restriction portion that comes into contact with the trailing edge of the recording medium that is contained in the container body in a front-rear direction of the recording medium and that restricts a position of the trailing edge of the recording medium, and a restriction portion that restricts movement of the trailing edge in a thickness direction of the recording medium that is contained in the container body.

IMAGE FORMING SYSTEM

An image forming system includes an image holding unit that is rotatably provided and that holds an image formed by means of a charged image forming material, a transfer unit that transfers the image hold by the image holding unit to a medium by using a transfer electric field, a fine particle applying unit that periodically or irregularly applies lubricant fine particles to the image holding unit, and a transfer control unit that controls the transfer electric field of the transfer unit depending on a state of application of the fine particles on the image holding unit.

Image forming system

An image forming system includes an image forming apparatus and a feeding device, the image forming apparatus including an image forming unit, a housing, an opening/closing door openable and closable between a first closed position and a first open position, and a support unit openable and closable between a second closed position and a second open position and configured to support a sheet when the support unit is at the second open position, the feeding device being movable in a direction horizontal to the image forming apparatus, configured to move to a coupled position and a decoupled position and feed the sheet to the image forming apparatus when the feeding device is at the coupled position, wherein when the feeding device is at the decoupled position and the opening/closing door is at the first open position, the feeding device overlaps the support unit as viewed from a first direction.
