    Abstract: A belt device includes an endless belt, a plurality of support rollers mounted on rotary shafts to stretch and support the endless belt, and a shaft displacement unit to displace a rotary shaft of one of the plurality of support rollers. The shaft displacement unit includes a belt contact rotator that is rotatable, a belt detector rotatable on the rotary shaft and movable when the belt contact rotator pushes the belt detector, a shaft inclination member not rotatable on the rotary shaft and movable when the belt detector pushes the shaft inclination member. The belt contact rotator contacts an edge of the endless belt and moves in a longitudinal axial direction of the one of the plurality of support rollers when the endless belt moves in the longitudinal axial direction. The shaft inclination member has an inclined face inclined with respect to the endless belt.

    Abstract: A belt device includes a plurality of support rotators, a belt, a cleaner, and a rotator inclination unit. The belt is looped around the plurality of support rotators and moves according to rotation of the plurality of support rotators. The cleaner contacts a surface of the belt to remove foreign substances. The rotator inclination unit inclines an inclined support rotator that is at least one of the plurality of support rotators. The cleaner is disposed in contact with a portion of the belt stretched taut between the inclined support rotator and another support rotator. A pushing amount of the cleaner relative to the belt varies according to inclination of the inclined support rotator and is smallest in a state in which the inclined support rotator is not inclined by the rotator inclination unit.

    Abstract: A belt control device includes a holder to movably support a rotation shaft of at least one of the plurality of rotators around which a belt is looped, a contact part to contact an end of the belt as the belt moves in a belt width direction, a stationary frame part disposed facing the holder, a shaft moving device to move the rotation shaft as the belt moves, and at least one projection disposed on one of the stationary frame part and the holder. The projection is to contact the other of the stationary frame part and the holder. The projection includes a long projection having a contact portion extending in a shaft moving direction in which the rotation shaft moves, and the contact portion is contactable with the other of the stationary frame part and the holder.

    Abstract: A belt device incorporatable in an image forming apparatus includes an endless belt, multiple belt tension rollers disposed in contact with an inner surface of the endless belt, a rotary cleaning member to contact a belt wound area of the endless belt facing an opposing roller to form a cleaning nip between the rotary cleaning member and the endless belt and rotate the rotary cleaning member in a direction opposite the belt moving direction within the cleaning nip, and a voltage applier. The cleaning nip is formed by offsetting a center of the cleaning nip upstream from a center of the belt wound area of the endless belt in the belt moving direction and by at least contacting the rotary cleaning member in a range from the belt wound area to a tensioned belt area located upstream from the belt wound area in the belt moving direction.
