    Abstract: An image forming device includes a development unit that forms a toner image, a fixation unit that includes a handle including a grip part and fixes the toner image transferred to a record medium on the record medium and a heat insulation duct that is situated between the development unit and the fixation unit and inhibits transmission of heat of the fixation unit to the development unit. The handle is provided to be able to shift between an operational position for being gripped by an operator and an operating position at which the handle is in contact with the heat insulation duct.

    Abstract: A medium conveying device includes a medium placing tray provided on a main body of an image forming apparatus to be openable and closable. The medium placing tray includes a placing portion on which a medium is placed. The medium conveying device includes a first displacement member including a contact portion that contacts the medium placed on the placing portion and a first engaging portion, and a second displacement member including a second engaging portion that engages the first engaging portion. A detecting unit detects a displacement state of the second displacement member. A determination unit determines the presence or absence of the medium on the placing portion based on a detection result of the detection unit. The first engaging portion and the second engaging portion engage and disengages from each other in conjunction with opening and closing operation of the medium placing tray.
