Original Abstract Submitted
an image forming apparatus includes a main body, a unit, a to-be-engaged member, a pull-in member that can pull in the to-be-engaged member, and a push-out member that pushes out the unit. when the unit is inserted in a first direction, the pull-in member engages with the to-be-engaged member and pulls in the to-be-engaged member so that the unit is displaced in the first direction. when the unit undergoes an external force in the first direction with the pull-in member engaged with the to-be-engaged member, one of the to-be-engaged member and the pull-in member is displaced in the first direction with respect to the main body by the external force so that the pull-in member and the to-be-engaged member are disengaged, and the unit is pushed out in a second direction by the push-out member.
