A processing structural member has a processing housing for supporting a processing portion, a locking lever, a cover and a holding portion. The locking lever changes the posture thereof between a locking posture of locking the position of the processing housing, and a releasing posture of releasing the locking. The cover is mounted on the processing housing to be pivotally movable between a covering position of covering the locking lever, and an opening position of exposing the locking lever to be visually recognizable. The holding portion is mounted on the processing housing to be pivotally movable with the cover. The cover has an interference member which is inoperable to interfere with the locking lever in the locking posture and is operable to interfere with the locking lever in the releasing posture in shifting the cover from the opening position to the covering position.

An image forming apparatus includes an apparatus body in which an image forming section that forms an image on a recording material and a drive mechanism that generates a rotational driving force are provided; a fixing section that transports the recording material while receiving the rotational driving force and fixes the image on the recording material, the fixing section being held by the apparatus body at two axial ends thereof; and a transmission mechanism that is provided at one of the two axial ends of the fixing section and is connected to the drive mechanism, the transmission mechanism transmitting the rotational driving force from the drive mechanism to the fixing section. When a pulling force is applied to a recording material that is present in the fixing section, the drive mechanism and the transmission mechanism are disconnected from each other.
