- a positioning hole (not shown) as a positioned portion is formed on the bottom surface of the apparatus main body 2 corresponding to the positioning member 37.
- Recessed body handles 38 are formed on the left and right side surfaces of the apparatus body 2. Holding the main body handle 38, the apparatus main body 2 is placed on the paper feed cassette deck 3 from above.
- the apparatus main body 2 and the paper feed cassette deck 3 are positioned in the horizontal direction. Further, a part of the bottom surface of the apparatus main body 2 is supported by the left frame 13 and the upper right frame 14 and positioned in the vertical direction. Then, the apparatus main body 2 and the paper feed cassette deck 3 are connected by fixing means (not shown). In a state where the apparatus main body 2 and the paper feed cassette deck 3 are connected, the opening 17 of the paper feed cassette deck 3 is covered by the bottom surface of the apparatus main body 2. When the copying machine 1 is moved, it can be operated with the main body handle 38 or the like.
- the image forming apparatus of the present invention it is possible to connect the paper feed cassette deck 3 to the apparatus main body 2 as necessary. Since the user can select the configuration of the copying machine 1 as needed, it is not necessary to bear unnecessary installation space and cost. Further, when connecting the paper cassette deck 3 to the apparatus main body 2, the paper cassette deck 3 can be safely and easily taken out from the packaging box.
