An image forming apparatus comprising a main body, a cooling device, and a coupling assembly. The cooling device cools a cooling target such as a heat generator, and includes a heat-receiving section forming a heat-receiving-section channel through which a coolant flows to absorb heat from the cooling target, a cooling section to cool the coolant, and a circulation path to circulate the coolant between the heat-receiving section and the cooling section, cooling the coolant at the heat-receiving section, and transporting the coolant back to the heat-receiving section. The cooling target is detachable from the main body together with the heat-receiving section. The cooling section is provided at the main body. The coupling assembly connects the heat-receiving-section channel and the circulation path to circulate the coolant between the heat-receiving section and the cooling section whether with the cooling target installed in or detached from the main body. |
