Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes a side regulating plate provided in a sheet feeding cassette and a regulating surface to regulate an end position of a sheet stored in the sheet feeding cassette. A first arm connected with a first connector of the side regulating plate and a second arm connected with a second connector of the side regulating plate pivot on an axis extending in the gravity direction, wherein the second connector is different from the first connector in terms of a feeding direction. A first fixing part fixes the first arm to the sheet feeding cassette, and a second fixing part fixes the second arm to the sheet feeding cassette, wherein the first arm intersects with the second arm when viewed in the gravity direction when the side regulating plate is located in at least a part of a movable range of the side regulating plate.
