Abstract: A sheet conveying device has a pair of upper discharge rollers including a first discharge roller and a first following roller, a second discharge tray, a corrugation member, and a moving mechanism. The first discharge roller is rotatable in forward and reverse directions. The corrugation member corrugates the sheet by making contact with its sheet face. The moving mechanism moves the corrugation member between a first position, where it makes contact with the sheet face of the sheet, and a second position, where it is located above, away from, the nip portion of the pair of upper discharge rollers. An image forming apparatus incorporates such a sheet conveying device.

Abstract: A fixing device includes a heating member, a pressure member, and a conveyance guide. The heating member internally includes a heating element. The pressure member includes an elastic layer located to be pressed against the heating member to ensure a fixing nip area between the heating member and the pressure member. The conveyance guide is located upstream with respect to the fixing nip area in a conveying path of a sheet on which the toner image is formed, and assists the sheet to run. The conveyance guide includes a first guiding portion that guides a head of the sheet to a distal end position close to the heating member and a second guiding portion that guides a tail of the sheet from the distal end position to an intermediate position between the heating member and the pressure member.

Abstract: A wipe unit, including one or more wipers, a wiper carriage, a collection tray, and an ink receiving member, cleans a recording head having an ink ejection surface in which an ink ejection port for ejecting ink onto a recording medium is opened. The one or more wipers wipe off ink on the ink ejection surface. The wiper carriage is moved along a wiping direction while holding the wiper. The collection tray, having a tray surface and placed below the wiper, collects ink wiped off by the wiper. The ink receiving member, which is recessed-shaped and provided in the wiper carriage, receives ink dropping from a wiper that is placed furthest downstream in the wiping direction among the one or more wipers, and moreover the ink receiving member lets the ink drop onto the tray surface.

Abstract: A sheet discharging device discharges a sheet to a sheet tray on which the sheet is to be placed. The sheet discharging device includes a discharge path configured to discharge the sheet to the sheet tray, a discharging portion arranged in the discharge path and configured to discharge the sheet passing along the discharge path to the sheet tray, and a pressing member capable of changing a posture between a hanging posture where the pressing member hangs down from a pivot center above the discharge path so as to block the discharge path for the sheet and a retracted posture where the pressing member is pivoted in a discharging direction about the pivot center to open the discharge path by receiving a pressing force in the discharging direction from the sheet. The pressing member includes an attaching portion to which a weight member having a predetermined weight is attachable.
