Abstract: A laminate, including at least a resin film and a pressure sensitive adhesive layer provided on one surface of the resin film, in which the resin film in the laminated state has a surface roughness Sa equal to or lower than 30 nm that is measured in a visual field of 4 mm×5 mm within a surface opposite to the surface having the pressure sensitive adhesive layer, a thickness of the pressure sensitive adhesive layer is equal to or smaller than 100 ?m, and a maximum value of a loss tangent of the pressure sensitive adhesive layer at a frequency of 1 Hz is found in a temperature range of 0° C. to ?40° C. and is equal to or greater than 1.3.

Abstract: An image foaming apparatus includes an image bearing member, a transfer unit, and a pressing mechanism. The image bearing member bears a toner image. The transfer unit is disposed opposite the image bearing member and is swingably and detachably held within a main body of the image forming apparatus. The transfer unit includes a transfer member and a power receiving electrode. The transfer member is disposed opposite the image bearing member, to contact the image bearing member to form a transfer nip therebetween and transfer the toner image on the image bearing member onto a recording medium in the transfer nip. The power receiving electrode receives power from the main body of the image forming apparatus. The pressing mechanism presses the transfer unit against the image bearing member and includes a power supply electrode that contacts the power receiving electrode of the transfer unit to supply power thereto.
