    摘要: A cabinet includes a first area and a second area arranged in a horizontal direction, an image forming apparatus, and a reading device. The image forming apparatus is accommodated in the first area and forms an image on a sheet and ejects the sheet with the image. The reading device is accommodated in the second area of the cabinet and reads an image of a document. At least a part of the reading device is pulled out from an internal space of the cabinet in a direction orthogonal to the horizontal direction in which the first area and the second area are arranged in a horizontal plane.

    摘要: Example embodiments include a driving device having: a plurality of vibrating members that may vibrate when the vibrating members are driven; and a holding part that may hold the vibrating members. The holding part may include a first member with which one or more of the vibrating members may be brought into contact, and a second member with which one or more of the vibrating members may be brought into contact. The first member and the second member may be partially coupled to each other. A grounding member for electrically grounding a member held by the holding part may be brought into contact with one of the first member and the second member that is more difficult to vibrate.
