Abstract

An image forming apparatus includes an image bearing member; an image forming portion for forming a toner image on the image bearing member; an intermediary transfer belt for carrying the toner image transferred from the image bearing member; a transfer belt for carrying and conveying a recording material; an attraction portion for electrostatically attracting the recording material to the transfer belt; a transfer portion for transferring the toner image from the intermediary transfer belt onto the recording material attracted to the transfer belt; and an electrode member, disposed downstream of the attraction portion and upstream of the transfer portion with respect to a movement direction of the transfer belt, being contacted to an inner surface of the transfer belt.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image forming apparatus that transfers a toner image onto a recording material that is electrostatically attracted to a transfer belt, and particularly relates to a method for suppressing discharge and adjustment on the upstream side of a transfer portion of a toner image Toner scattering (scattering) structure. Background technique [0002] A transfer belt type image forming apparatus in which a plurality of image forming portions different in development color are arranged along the transfer belt has been put into practical use (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open (JP-A) 2007-003634). Intermediate transfer and transfer belt types that primarily transfer a toner image formed by an image forming portion onto an intermediate transfer belt and then secondarily transfer from the intermediate transfer belt onto a recording material carried on the transfer belt The image forming apparatus of has also been put into prac...
