Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, when the image reading unit and the operating unit protruding from the side of the image reading unit are accommodated in one casing, since the operation unit accommodating portion of the casing protrudes, when the user operates, The operating part housing part is depressed, which may impair the texture of the operation
Especially when resin is selected as the material of the housing, the rigidity of the housing part containing the operation part is insufficient, and it is easy to bend downward during operation, and the texture of operation is significantly reduced

Abstract

A housing includes a first frame which includes a first accommodating portion having a bottom plate to be supported on a predetermined support surface, the first accommodating portion having an accommodating space for accommodating the image reading part, and a second accommodating portion protruding outward in a first direction from a side surface of the first accommodating portion, the second accommodating portion positioned higher than the bottom plate, the second accommodating portion having an accommodating space for accommodating the operation unit; a second frame attached to a peripheral edge portion of an opening formed on a top surface of the first accommodating portion; and an engaging mechanism installed at the side of a base end portion of the second accommodating portion and configured to bring the second accommodating portion and the second frame into engagement in a direction perpendicular to the side surface of the first accommodating portion.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image forming apparatus. Background technique [0002] In some image forming apparatuses including an image reading unit capable of reading an image of a document, an operation unit capable of operating an input to the image forming apparatus is arranged protruding from a side of the image reading unit. In such a device, in order to reduce component costs and assembly costs, the image reading unit and the operation unit are sometimes housed in a single housing. [0003] However, when the image reading unit and the operation unit protruding from the side of the image reading unit are accommodated in one housing, since the operation unit accommodating portion of the housing protrudes, when the user operates, The operating portion housing portion is depressed, thereby possibly impairing the texture of the operation. Especially when resin is selected as the material of the casing, the rigidity of the housing portion co...
