Transport device and image forming apparatus

Abstract

A transport device including: a first transporting part that transports a medium; and a second transporting part that includes a pair of transport members each having a shaft and multiple rotary members arranged at intervals in an axial direction. The second transporting part transports the medium while nipping the medium between the pair of transport members after a leading end of the medium transported by the first transporting part comes into contact with the transport members. At least one of the multiple rotary members of one transport member is a circular-truncated-cone-shaped rotary member in which a diameter of one base is larger than a diameter of the other base.
