ABSTRACT:
An image forming apparatus includes a main body, a roller detachably attached to/from the main body, a supporting member supporting a rotary shaft of the roller, and a locking unit which includes a locker frame and a locker arm. The locker arm is elastically biased toward the locking position and is moved to a releasing position when a user pushes the locker arm. In addition, the locker arm is movably coupled to the locker frame fixed on the main body, and installed on the main body in a state where the locking unit is assembled in advance. Therefore, assembling processes of the apparatus can be simple, and a user can assemble the apparatus easily.
