发明名称 Image forming apparatus having a movement mechanism for reducing interference of an opening and closing member with a transfer body
摘要 An image forming apparatus having an apparatus body includes an image carrying body carrying an image, a transfer body which is provided in the apparatus body and to which the image is transferred, a first opening and closing member, a second opening and closing member, and a movement mechanism. The first opening and closing member is rotatable so as to open and close an opening of the apparatus body. The transfer body is detachable from the apparatus body through the opening. The second opening and closing member, which is displaceable relative to the first opening and closing member, together with the first opening and closing member opens and closes the opening in conjunction with opening and closing operations of the first opening and closing member. The movement mechanism causes the second opening and closing member to move in a direction away from the transfer body.

主权项 1. An image forming apparatus comprising: an apparatus body comprising an upper portion and an opening: an image carrying body provided in the apparatus body, the image carrying body being configured to carry an image; a transfer body provided in the apparatus body, the transfer body being configured to transfer the image carried by the image carrying body; a first opening and closing member having a first rotational axis portion, the first opening and closing member being attached to the upper portion of the apparatus body so as to be rotatable about the first rotational axis portion so as to open and close the opening,the transfer body being detachable from the apparatus body through the opening; a second opening and closing member provided on the first rotational axis portion side of the first opening and closing member so as to be displaceable relative to the first opening and closing member, the second opening and closing member being located such that, if the second opening and closing member were to rotate together with the first opening and closing member about a rotational axis of the first rotational axis portion to thereby open the opening, then the second opening and closing member would interfere with the transfer body, andthe second opening and closing member being configured to, together with the first opening and closing member, open and close the opening in conjunction with opening and closing operations of the first opening and closing member; and a movement mechanism configured to cause the second opening and closing member to move in a direction away from the transfer body in conjunction with the opening operation of the first opening and closing member.
