Abstract
A belt device includes a belt wound around support rotators, to travel as the support rotators rotate; a belt contact member on a rotation shaft of one of the support rotators, to contact an end of the belt and move in an axial direction of the rotation shaft with the belt; a displacement member on the rotation shaft and including an inclined face to move the one support rotator, to move in the axial direction as the belt contact member moves; a guide to contact the inclined face and restrict a moving direction of the displacement member; a shaft support rotatably supporting the one support rotator and the rotation shaft; a restriction member to restrict movement of the one support rotator and the rotation shaft; and an elastically deformable intermediate member between the shaft support and the restriction member, to prevent the shaft support from contacting the restriction member.
