ABSTRACT:
A pulley fixing apparatus of an office machine having a pulley fixing part rotatably fixing a driven pulley on a frame, a sliding part movably supporting the pulley fixing part on the frame, and an automatic tension adjusting part elastically urging the pulley fixing part in a direction such that the driven pulley imparts a predetermined tension to a power-transmitting belt. The pulley fixing apparatus readily enables mounting and dismounting of the power-transmitting belt and the driven pulley and control of the power-transmitting belt tension by simplifying structure and assembly. Further, the pulley fixing apparatus reduces manufacturing cost and assembly time by decreasing the number of parts.
