[0048] figure 1 Shown is an overall structure of a digital copying machine as an image forming apparatus to which a belt conveying apparatus according to the first embodiment of the present invention is applied. It is to be noted that the present invention is not limited to digital copiers, but can also be applied to various devices as long as they have a belt conveying unit, such as facsimile devices, printers (including inkjet printers) and the like.

[0049] On the top surface of the main body 1 a of the digital copier 1 are provided a contact glass 2 and a slit glass having a smaller area than the contact glass 2 . In addition, an automatic document feeder 3 (which may be abbreviated as "ADF" hereinafter) is provided on the main body 1a of the digital copying machine 1 (in this example, placed on the contact glass 2 and slotted glass). The ADF 3 is movable relative to the contact glass 2 and the slotted glass to open and close a space above the contact glass 2 and the sl...

Abstract

In an intermediate transfer part (100), a bead 107 is formed on an inner side of an intermediate transfer belt (102), which is rotated by an intermediate transfer belt drive roller (101). Driven roller bearings (104a, 104b) support an intermediate transfer belt driven roller (103). The intermediate transfer belt driven roller (103) is movable in a thrust direction. Ends of the intermediate transfer belt driven roller (101) and the intermediate transfer belt driven roller (103) interfere with a bead (107) so as to restrict a deflection of the intermediate transfer belt in the thrust direction. The intermediate transfer belt driven roller (103) is movable in the thrust direction against a deflection of the intermediate transfer belt (102).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to an image forming apparatus, and more particularly to an image forming apparatus utilizing a belt conveying apparatus with a driving roller, a driven roller, and a The driven rollers are engaged with the endless belt. Background technique [0002] A conventional belt conveying apparatus has an endless guide member, a part of which extends from the end surface of a conveying roller positioned on a conveying belt so that the endless guiding member is connected to a drive roller and a driven roller ( It may also be called a follower roller or an idle roller) and the spacer on the end side engages (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). According to the aforementioned structure, if the conveyor belt moves in a zigzag direction, a pressure is exerted on the conveyor belt and a stretching phenomenon occurs, no stress is generated in the endless guide member, and the flatness of the conveyor belt is maintained. ...
