Abstract: A belt driving device includes an annular belt member, rotary members, a protrusion, and a removing member. The rotary members extend in parallel and rotate. The belt member is wound around the rotary members. The protrusion protrudes from an inner peripheral surface of the bel member. The protrusion extends along an edge of the belt member. The protrusion and each rotary member are arranged in an extending direction of the rotary member. The removing member includes a plate-shaped portion. The plate-shaped portion is in contact with an outer peripheral surface of the belt member at a location where the removing member faces one of the rotary members with the belt member being interposed therebetween, so as to remove unnecessary matters from the outer peripheral surface of the belt member. The removing member extends to an outside of end portions of the rotary members in the extending direction.
