A drive apparatus is provided with a first gear (41), a second gear, a third gear(43), a first support member(44), and a second support member (45). The first gear(41) is fixed to a conveyance screw(33). The second gear is arranged in tandem with the first gear (41) in an axial-center direction of the conveyance screw (33) . The third gear(43) meshes with the first gear(41) and the second gear(42). The first support member(44) supports the first gear(41) to enable movement in one radial direction. The second support member (45) supports the second gear (42) to disable movement in the radial direction. The number of teeth of the first gear (41) and that of the second gear (42) are different. In the first gear (41), a first cam unit (41b) is formed. In the second gear (42), a second cam unit(42b) is formed. The both cam units converts a circumferential relative displacement, generated along with rotation of the third gear (43), between the first and second gears is converted into a displacement in the one direction of the first gear (41), in a predetermined period in accordance with the number of rotations of the third gear(43). |
