主权项 1. An image forming apparatus comprising: a housing accommodating an image forming unit therein and having an opening at one side surface thereof; a cover member pivotally supported to a lower edge portion of the opening and rotated to an outer side of the housing from a closed state, in which the opening is closed, by employing a shaft as a fulcrum, thereby opening the opening; and a long belt-shaped support member having one end portion mounted at the housing and the other end portion mounted at the cover member, and restricting an opening angle of the cover member to a predetermined maximum opening angle, wherein the support member is provided at an intermediate portion thereof in a longitudinal direction with wavelike portions having a wave shape when viewed from a width direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction and having elasticity in the longitudinal direction.
