Embodiment Construction

[0110] 12 and 13 are perspective views showing a multifunction peripheral F as an embodiment of the image forming apparatus of the present invention. The multifunctional machine F is equipped with a flatbed scanner unit 81 as an image reading unit on the printer body 1, which is the main body of the image forming apparatus, and has functions of printing, copying, facsimile, and network communication.

[0111] FIG. 1 is a side sectional view of an essential part showing an embodiment of a printer body 1 . First, the printer body 1 will be described with reference to FIG. 1 .

[0112] In Fig. 1, the printer main body 1 is a structure of a laser printer. In the main body frame 2 made of resin, there is a paper feeding part 4 for feeding paper 3 as a recording medium, and a paper feeding part 4 for discharging paper. An image forming unit 5 for forming an image on the paper 3, a paper discharge unit 6 for discharging the paper 3 on which the image is formed, and the like. In the...

Abstract

To improve the rigidity of an image forming apparatus provided with an ejection part between an image reading device and an image forming apparatus body. Since a joint cover 61 is attached to a printer body 1, and a scanner unit 81 is supported by the joint cover 61, a connection part consisting of the joint cover 61 between the printer body 1 and the scanner unit 81 is made as a paper ejecting part 99 to eject paper 3, and the front end of the side cover 63 of the joint cover 61 is arranged on the front side of the front end 82a of an original platen 82, so that a front end recess 66 recessed on a backside is formed at the front end. Thus, the ejected paper 3 is easily taken out from the recess of the front end recess 66 while supporting the scanner unit 81 by the side cover 63, and the improvement of operability is attained while securing the rigidity of the apparatus.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image forming apparatus having an image reading device. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, in equipment such as facsimile machines and copiers, there is known a structure in which an image reading device for reading an image recorded in a document is mounted on the upper portion of the image forming apparatus body. [0003] As this image forming apparatus, for example, in Patent No. 3205734 (Patent Document 1), it is described that, as shown in FIG. The proposal of the image forming apparatus 150 of the feeder) apparatus 152. [0004] In this image forming apparatus 150, a carbon paper discharge unit 153 is provided on the upper portion of the main body 151, that is, at the middle portion in the depth direction between the main body 151 and the ADF unit 152. [0005] Again, this image forming apparatus is composed of an image reading section, an image forming section, and an operating section integrally,...
