Problems solved by technology

[0012] Existing image forming apparatuses have the above-mentioned structural restrictions, so when the user opens the cover of the image forming apparatus to confirm the paper jam situation, he must confirm it from the side of the apparatus, and the direction of confirmation is limited.
In addition, since the space inside the device is narrow, it is difficult to check the inside of the device
Therefore, there is a problem that it is difficult to find the position where the paper jam occurs.

Embodiment Construction

[0031] like figure 1 (A) and figure 1 As shown in (B), the image forming apparatus 100 is provided with an image reading unit 130 on the upper part of the apparatus body. The image reading unit 130 corresponds to a document loading table, and includes a first document loading table 131 and a second document loading table 132 as will be described later. On an upper portion of the image reading unit 130 , a panel unit 110 and an automatic document conveying unit 120 are provided. The panel unit 110 includes a display unit and an operation unit. The image forming apparatus 100 includes an image forming unit 140 and a paper feeding unit 150 inside the apparatus body.

[0032] The image forming apparatus 100 is provided with a side cover 201 on the right side, which is a side portion of the actual apparatus. The side cover 201 is pivotally supported by the shaft 202 at the lower end of both sides, and can be opened and closed freely (refer to figure 2 ). like figure 1 As sh...

Abstract

To provide an image forming apparatus in which the inside of an apparatus body can be easy to confirm and an occurrence place of paper jamming can be easy to find out. An image forming apparatus (100)includes: a side cover (201) provided on a side part of an apparatus body so as to be freely opened / closed; a fixing part (80), provided at a position proximate to the side cover (201) inside the apparatus body, for fixing an image on a paper sheet (P) transported in the bottom-to-top direction of the apparatus body; and a document placing table (130), provided on an upper part of the apparatus body, on which a document is placed. There is provided a cutout (130K) which is formed such that a portion facing an upper part of the side cover (201) in the document placing table (130) is cut out inside. When the side cover (201) is opened, a nip (85) in the fixing part (80) is made visible obliquely from an upside in the lateral direction of the apparatus body through the cutout (130K).

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of a patent application with an application date of July 27, 2012, an application number of 201280044389.9, and an invention title of "image forming device". technical field [0002] The present invention relates to an image forming apparatus including a side cover that can be opened and closed on a side portion of the main body of the apparatus. Background technique [0003] In an image forming apparatus, if a paper jam (paper jam) occurs during image formation, a sensor detects the paper jam, and stops conveyance of paper. At this time, the user needs to open the side cover provided on the side of the device body to check the inside of the device and remove the clogged paper. [0004] Hitherto, when a paper jam occurs in the fixing unit and its vicinity, an image forming apparatus has been disclosed that is excellent in visibility of the situation and removability of jammed paper (for example, refer to Patent Document 1)....
