Abstract
An image forming unit includes a first rotating body having a first gear; a first unit that rotatably supports the first rotating body; a second rotating body having a second gear; a second unit that rotatably supports the second rotating body; and a biasing part that biases the second unit toward the first unit, wherein a drive force is generated by transmitting rotation from the first gear to the second gear in order to transmit the rotation from the first rotating body to the second rotating body, and the biasing part biases the second unit in a biasing direction substantially perpendicular to a driving direction of the drive force.
