PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To effectively reduce vibration around an image forming cartridge loading member and to prevent banding caused by the vibration by providing a plate-like structural member for partitioning an image forming cartridge between the image forming cartridges. SOLUTION: This device is equipped with the structural member 25 partitioning between the adjacent image forming cartridges 4 to 7 out of the cartridges 4 to 7. The member 25 is constituted of a plate-like member whose both ends in a direction orthogonal to the loading/unloading direction of the cartridges 4 to 7 are folded upward, and fixed on the vicinity part of the loading port for the cartridges 4 to 7 formed on a front side plate 22a and a rear side plate 22b. The similar structural member 25 is provided above the cartridge 4 positioned at the uppermost part and under the cartridge 7 positioned at the lowermost part. Since plural members 25 are arrayed corresponding to the cartridges 4 to 7 arranged to be superposed in a gravity direction, the vibration in an up-and-down direction is effectively restrained and the banding is effectively prevented. |
