<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To realize the reduction of parts cost and power saving by decreasing the number of installed fans. <P>SOLUTION: Sheet type recording material S placed on a recording material placing table 24a is sucked to a recording material feeding means 31 by the air suction of a recording material sucking means 32 and fed from the placing table 24a to an image forming part by the feeding means 31. Intake air by the means 32 is guided to a control part 16 being a part to be cooled through a duct 52, so that the control part 16 is cooled with the air discharged from the duct 52. That means, the fan for cooling the control part 16 need not be installed specially, whereby the number of parts is reduced and power consumption is lowered. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO |
