  • Publication number: 20080048138
    Abstract: An image forming apparatus that forms an image on a recording medium includes a sensor including a light emitting element configured to emit light and a light receiving element configured to receive light emitted from the light emitting element. A sensor actuator is configured to cause a transition between a first state where the light emitted from the light emitting element is received at the light receiving element and a second state where the light emitted from the light emitting element is not received at the light receiving element in response to a recording medium being detected. A light shield is coupled to the sensor actuator and configured to cover at least a part of the sensor and to prevent light other than light emitted from the light emitting element from entering the light receiving element in the second state.

  • Publication number: 20070269244
    Abstract: An image-forming device includes a photosensitive drum, a transfer roller, a guide plate for guiding the paper toward the photosensitive drum, and a seat for supporting one end portion of the guide plate, for allowing another end portion of the guide plate to be deformable. A sponge is fixed to the bottom surface of the guide plate to expose at least the deformation part, so that the sponge can reduce the occurrence of paper jams. The sponge absorbs vibrations in the guide plate.

  • Publication number: 20060267269
    Abstract: An image forming apparatus that includes: a housing that has a sheet member feed-in port on a side of one side surface thereof; a feed-in mechanism disposed in a second conveyance passage to feed the sheet member from the sheet member feed-in port to a side of a junction point between a first conveyance passage and the second conveyance passage. The feed-in mechanism includes: a feed-in roller that feeds the sheet member into the sheet member feed-in port; a separation member disposed on a downstream side in a conveyance direction of the sheet member with respect to the feed-in roller; and a separation roller. An opposition position between the separation member and the separation roller is located further from the one side surface than the first conveyance passage and is located closer to the one side surface than the junction point.
