Original Abstract Submitted

An image forming apparatus includes an apparatus body having a body frame, an image bearing member, a belt unit including a belt, and a stretching member configured to stretch the belt, the belt unit being pivotable around a first pivot axis between a first position and a second position, a transfer unit, and a detection unit movably supported by the body frame. The detection unit is configured to pivot around a second pivot axis different from the first pivot axis with respect to the body frame so as not to hinder pivoting of the belt unit in conjunction with a pivoting operation in which the belt unit pivots from the first position to the second position.
