Abstract: An image reading device is movable between a first position and a second position spaced farther apart from an image forming device than the first position, and a regulating member configured to regulate respective positions of two cables maintains, when the image reading device is at the first position, the two cables, respectively, in a bent state in a direction away from each other.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes an openable cover, including a rotational shaft, capable of opening and closing an opening by being rotated about the rotational shaft relative to a main assembly of the image forming apparatus; an image forming portion for forming a toner image on a sheet; an opposing member, provided in the image forming portion, opposing the openable cover when the openable cover closes the opening; a contact member, provided on the openable cover, contactable to the opposing member; an urging member, provided on the openable cover, for urging the contact member toward the opposing member; and a locking member for locking the openable cover in a closed state relative to the main assembly. The image forming apparatus comprising a cam member, provided in the image forming portion, for moving the contact member toward and away from the opposing member by rotation of the cam member.

Abstract: The present invention provides a sheet feeding apparatus and an image forming apparatus which can suppress generation of sheet skew feeding by a simple configuration and a pair of side edge regulating portions 30r and 30l is provided opposite each other in a sheet storage portion in order to regulate positions of side edges in a width direction orthogonal to a sheet feeding direction of the stored sheet S. At least one of the side regulating plates 30r and 30l can be moved in the width direction, and abutting portions 301r and 301l are provided opposite each other on inner wall surfaces of the side regulating plates 30r and 30l to abut on side edges of the sheet S.
