HINGE MEMBER, ITS FIXING METHOD, OPENING/CLOSING MEMBER, ITS FIXING METHOD, AND IMAGE FORMING DEVICE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To increase the rigidity of a hinge part by increasing the thickness of the hinge part and enhance the rigidity of an opening/closing member by means of a reinforcing part. SOLUTION: A hinge member 20 has a reinforcing part 16-b for reinforcing an opening/closing member and a hinge part 16 for openably and closably holding the opening/closing member to an image forming device main body. To fix the hinge member into the image forming device main body, the hinge member is shifted in the direction parallel to the opening/closing direction of the opening/closing member and then rotated. The opening/closing member has the hinge part integrated therewith and openably and closably held on the image forming device main body. To fix the opening/closing member into the image forming device main body, the opening/closing member is shifted in the direction parallel to the opening/closing direction and then rotated. An image forming device has the opening/closing member in the image forming device main body.
