A conductor connection tool includes a terminal platform base, a conduction fitting accommodated in a fitting recessed part of the terminal platform base. The conduction fitting is formed in a substantially U shape and includes a bottom plate portion, a vertical portion bent vertically upward from one end of the bottom plate portion, and an attachment portion extending from an upper end of the vertical portion in parallel to the bottom plate portion, and having a terminal portion extending in the opposite direction to the attachment portion. A plate spring bent in a substantially V shape with one side serving as an attachment piece to be fixed to the attachment portion of the conduction fitting with the other side serving as a locking piece whose front end is to be brought into pressure contact with the bottom plate portion of the conduction fitting.

An image forming apparatus includes an image carrier; a developer carrier configured to adhere toner onto the image carrier; an image density detector to detect a density of an image on the image carrier formed by the developer carrier adhering the toner on the image carrier; a rotary member to form an image pattern of which density is detected by the image density detector; and a rotational position detector to detect a rotational position of the rotary member. In the image forming apparatus, the image pattern is generated based on the rotational position detected by the rotational position detector and the rotary member that the rotational position detector detects the rotational position thereof is either the image carrier or the developer carrier.

An extension piece portion is provided at a lower end portion of a screen plate so as to extend from the lower end portion, beyond a gas-passing through hole, to an oil pocket portion. An oil guide portion is provided at respective gas-hitting-side face portions of the screen plate and the extension piece portion so as to guide oil trapped at the above-described face portions into the oil pocket portion. Accordingly, it can be prevented that part of the oil in the middle of dropping down into the oil pocket portion from the screen plate is carried away by the gas flow passing through the gas-passing through hole, so that the efficiency of oil trap can be improved.

A lubricating device comprises a cam shaft, plural cam portions for each valve provided at the cylinder head, a valve driving mechanism to change a rotational movement of the cam portion to an opening-and-closing movement of the valve via a slide member on which a peripheral surface of the cam portion slides, an oil passage of the cam shaft, a nozzle provided at either one of the cam portions to open at the peripheral surface of the cam portion and connect to the oil passage of the cam shaft, and a wall body having a recess portion. The recess portion collects lubricating oil ejected out of the nozzle and guides the lubricating oil collected to the peripheral surface of the other cam portion when the one cam portion is located in a position in which the nozzle is not directed to the slide member.

A positioning controlling apparatus includes: a current speed calculator that calculates a current speed of a conveyor belt from a detected moving distance; a position determining unit that determines the position of a conveyor belt for determining its stop position also from the detected moving distance; a gain switch having a plurality of gains; a target speed calculator that inputs a gain obtained by switching, and calculates a target speed of the conveyor belt; a speed error calculator that calculates an error between a calculated target speed and a calculated current speed; and an automatic controller that controls a drive motor by using a speed error. When the position determining unit determines that the conveyor belt is in the positioning area, the gain switch performs positioning while switching plural gains and outputting it.

A sheet conveying device, which is included in an image forming apparatus and a post processing device, includes multiple position detectors and a position corrector. The multiple position detectors are aligned along a sheet conveying direction and configured to detect a side end of a sheet. The position corrector is configured to convey the sheet and correct a position of the sheet based on a positional deviation amount of the sheet, obtained by a detection result of the multiple position detectors. The positional deviation amount of the sheet is obtained by an extreme downstream position detector in the sheet conveying direction, of the multiple position detectors. A position of a subsequent sheet is corrected based on a sum of the positional deviation amount of the sheet and a positional deviation amount of the subsequent sheet.

An image reading device, which is included in an image forming apparatus and used to perform a method of reading images, includes an image reading body configured to read one of a recording medium and the recording medium together with a background area adjacent to the recording medium, a moving body disposed facing the image reading body, and a reference body as a reference in shading correction. The moving body is configured to hold the recording medium and the reference body in a direction intersecting a sheet conveying direction of the recording medium such that the recording medium and the reference body contact to and separate from the image reading body.
