Abstract:
Provided is an image forming apparatus that cools a cooled unit with high cooling efficiency in the longitudinal direction with a simple structure. A connecting opening portion is provided in a boundary surface that partitions between a cooling duct and a parallel duct. A rectifying plate is shaped so as to deflect a flow of air from the right side to the left side in the vicinity of the connecting opening portion toward the lower side or toward the upper side. Low-temperature cooling air flow from the parallel duct into the cooling duct via the connecting opening portion. Alternatively, inside the cooling duct, high-temperature cooling air is removed through the connecting opening portion.

Claim (Index 3):
The image forming apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein\n the cooling unit comprises a parallel duct that comes in contact with the cooling duct via the boundary surface and inside of which the cooling air flows along the one direction from the one side toward the another side.
