Abstract: An image forming device includes a device body, a side cover fixed to the device body to cover a side face of the device body, a top cover attached swingably to the device body to cover an upper face of the device body, the top cover and the side cover defining a mating portion as a boundary region therebetween, a plane portion formed in a first one of the top cover and the side cover, and an inclined portion formed at a side of the first one in the mating portion, the inclined portion including an inclined surface configured to be inclined with respect to the plane portion, the inclined surface extending toward a back surface side of a second one of the top cover and the side cover.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus is provided. The image forming apparatus includes a main body; process cartridges, each including a photosensitive drum and a developing roller; a body frame including a abutment portions and projecting portions; fixing members configured to rotate to a locked state where the fixing members bring the process cartridges into abutment with the abutment portions and to an unlocked state where the fixing members are spaced apart from the process cartridges; spacing members which move to a spacing position where the developing rollers are spaced apart from the photosensitive rollers and a permissive position where the developing rollers are in contact with the developing rollers; and a translation member reciprocating in a straight line for displacing the fixing members between the locked state and the unlocked state and moving the spacing members between the spacing position and the permissive position.
