<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image forming apparatus without any failure of the occurrence of an abnormal image, with good cooling efficiency, power reduction and noise reduction carried out by: efficiently preventing temperature rise due to influence from heat conduction, etc., from a heat source; and securing travelling stability of an endless belt with heat expansion. <P>SOLUTION: The image forming apparatus includes: an endless belt-travelling unit having the endless belt which is travelled in rotation; and a heat source unit with the heat source, the unit being arranged in proximity of the endless belt of the endless belt travelling unit. In the image forming apparatus, a cooling means for cooling the surface temperature of the endless belt is provided on a backside of a region 25 which is susceptible to influence from the heat source of the heat source unit in the endless belt of the endless belt travelling unit. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT</p> |
