IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS

摘要

An image forming apparatus includes a unit, a high-voltage board and a connecting mechanism. The connecting mechanism includes a first connecting member, a first holding member, a coupling member and a second connecting member. The first connecting member includes a first spring terminal. The first spring terminal includes a first large diameter part and a first small diameter part. The first holding member has a first contact part coming into contact with an end part of the first small diameter part at a side of the first large diameter part in a state where the first holding member is coupled with the coupling member. The coupling member has a second contact part coming into contact with an end part of the first large diameter part at a side of the first small diameter part in the state where the first holding member is coupled with the coupling member.

主权项

1. An image forming apparatus comprising:
a unit used for an image forming process on a recording medium; a high-voltage board configured to supply a high-voltage current to the unit; and a connecting mechanism configured to electrically connect the high-voltage board and the unit, wherein the connecting mechanism includes: a first connecting member including a first spring terminal; a first holding member configured to hold the first connecting member; a coupling member with which the first holding member is coupled; and a second connecting member including a second spring terminal configured to be contactable with the first spring terminal, the first spring terminal includes: a first large diameter part composed of a compressible coil spring; and a first small diameter part composed of a tightly wound coil spring, having a smaller outer diameter than the first large diameter part and configured to be contactable with the second spring terminal, the first holding member has a first contact part configured to come into contact with an end part of the first small diameter part at a side of the first large diameter part in a state where the first holding member is coupled with the coupling member, and the coupling member has a second contact part configured to come into contact with an end part of the first large diameter part at a side of the first small diameter part in the state where the first holding member is coupled with the coupling member.
