Abstract
An image forming apparatus has an airborne particle reduction structure located in an airflow passage and including a first L-shaped baffle and a second L-shaped baffle. The first L-shaped baffle and the second L-shaped baffle each include an overhang extending from a bent portion to a first end and a wind receiver extending from the bent portion to a second end. Additionally, the first end of the first L-shaped baffle and the first end of the second L-shaped baffle are both oriented toward an upstream position of the airflow passage. The second end of the first L-shaped baffle is attached to a first airflow surface of the airflow passage, and the second end of the second L-shaped baffle is attached to a second airflow surface opposing the first airflow surface and located downstream from the first L-shaped baffle.
