SUPPORT STRUCTURE OF IMAGE SCANNING UNIT AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make it possible to increase resistance of a support part of an image scanning unit to an impact in the horizontal direction without impairing dimensional accuracy.SOLUTION: A first support member 71 supported in a cantilever state supports a housing 15 of an image scanning unit 11 while connected to the housing. Interposing members 73 each have a first convex part 731 that is fitted to a first hole in a bottom plate part 150 of the housing 15, and a second convex part 733 that is fitted to a second hole in a second support member 72, and is connected to the housing 15. The second support member 72 supports the bottom plate part 150 of the housing 15 via the interposing members 73 while connected to the interposing members 73.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2
