<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problem that in a conventional image forming apparatus or the like, a meander prevention member is stuck to a conveyance belt for conveying a recording medium, pulleys for guiding the meander prevention member are disposed on rollers extending the conveyance belt and thereby preventing meandering of the conveyance belt, in which waviness or the like arises in the conveyance belt due to a temperature or humidity change or aging, and accordingly the recording medium cannot be conveyed stably. <P>SOLUTION: A belt body 10 extended by the drive roller 20, and so on is composed of the endless belt 22 and beads 100 attached to the belt. Each of the beads 100 is formed from a sticking member 103, a first layer member formed from urethane of predetermined hardness, and a second layer member 102 formed from urethane of predetermined hardness lower than that of the first layer member. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT</p> |
