Conveyance apparatus and image forming apparatus

Abstract

A conveyance apparatus is provided with a conveyance body that suction adheres and conveys a sheet form medium, and a pressing body that presses the sheet form medium against a suction adhesion face of the conveyance body that suction adheres the sheet form medium, the paper press roller pressing more strongly portions that are present at plural locations along the suction adhesion face width direction where the suction adhesion force of the suction adhesion face is weak than the pressing body presses other portions. The pressing body of the conveyance apparatus includes large diameter portions that press the sheet form medium at plural locations along the width direction, thereby preventing lift-off of the sheet form medium at suction hole unformed regions that are portions where the suction adhesion force to the suction adhesion face of the conveyance body is weaker than in the vicinity thereof.
