    Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a first frame member and a second frame member which are aligned in a direction of a rotation axis of an image bearing member and faces each other across an image forming unit and a stacking unit. The first frame member includes a first portion including a first side surface facing the image forming unit and a second portion, which is fixed to the first portion, including a second side surface facing the stacking unit. The second frame member includes a third side surface facing the image forming unit and the stacking unit, and at least a part of the second side surface is provided in a position different from a position of the first side surface in the direction of the rotation axis of the image bearing member.

    Abstract: An elastic roller includes: a roller shaft; and an elastic member. The elastic roller includes an inner layer side elastic member, and a coating layer. The inner layer side elastic member has a rubber hardness of 30 to 80 degrees that is measured by a durometer type A in accordance with the standard of JIS K 6253. The inner layer side elastic member has a tear strength of 25 N/mm or more that is measured using an unnicked angle-shaped test piece in accordance with JIS K 6252. The coating layer is made of silicone resin, and has a thickness of 10 to 100 μm. The silicone resin has hardness of 20 degrees or less that is measured using a spring-based Asker C type in accordance with SRIS 0101 standard. The inner layer side elastic member has a plurality of internal grooves along a circumferential direction. Each of the internal grooves has a width of 25 to 1,300 μm, and has a depth of 25 to 500 μm. Each of the internal grooves has a V-shaped in cross section and has a groove angle of 50 to 120 degrees.

    Abstract: A sheet transporting device in which a curved transport path is provided downstream in a sheet transport direction from a merging section where a plurality of transport paths, which are formed by transport guides for transporting sheets, merge, is provided. The sheet transporting device includes a sheet guide member that extends towards the curved transport path from the merging section, with an extending end portion of the sheet guide member being disposed so as not to contact the transport guides. The sheet guide member reduces jumping up of a trailing end portion of a sheet caused by flexing of the sheet passing through the merging section towards the curved transport path.
