Abstract:
An electrophotographic image forming apparatus includes a recording medium storage unit in which a recording medium is stored, a pickup unit to pick up the recording medium stored in the recording medium storage unit, a pair of transport rollers being engaged with each other to rotate and transport the recording medium picked up by the pickup unit; an image forming unit to form an image on the recording medium transferred by the pair of transport rollers; and a frame including a first support region to support at least one of the pair of transport rollers, and a second support region to support at least a part of the image forming unit, wherein the frame further includes a vibration blocking slit that is disposed between the first and second support regions to block vibration from being transmitted from the first support region to the second support region.
Abstract:
A power transmitting apparatus includes a driving source, a driving member rotated by the driving source, a driven member linked with the driving member to rotate, a transmitting member disposed between the driving member and the driven member, the transmitting member being rotated by the driving member, axially moved along a rotation direction of the driving member so that the transmitting member is connected to the driven member, and an elastic member disposed between the transmitting member and the driven member, the elastic member providing an elastic bias into the transmitting member so that the transmitting member is separated from the driven member.
