Image forming apparatus

摘要

An image forming apparatus, including an image forming unit having a photosensitive drum and a developer device; a first frame, made of a resin, formed in an approximate shape of a rectangle plate having shorter sides and longer sides, and arranged on one end, along an axial direction of a rotation axis of the photosensitive drum, of the image forming unit; a first beam formed in an elongated shape, arranged along and fixed to a planar face of the first frame, is provided. The first beam is arranged to partly overlap the image forming unit, when viewed along a facing direction to face the planar face of the first frame orthogonally, and is fixed to end parts on the longer sides of the first frame at longitudinal ends thereof at least along the facing direction.

1. An image forming apparatus, comprising:
an image forming unit comprising a photosensitive drum configured to be rotatable about a rotation axis and a developer device configured to supply developer agent to the photosensitive drum; a first frame made of a resin and formed in an approximate shape of a rectangle plate having shorter sides and longer sides, the first frame being arranged on one end, along an axial direction of the rotation axis of the photosensitive drum, of the image forming unit; a first beam formed in an elongated shape, the first beam being arranged along and fixed to a planar face of the first frame; and a spring electrode configured to supply electricity to the image forming unit is arranged on the first frame and is arranged in a position between the first frame and the image forming unit in a compressed condition, wherein the first beam is arranged to partly overlap the image forming unit, when viewed along a facing direction to face the planar face of the first frame orthogonally, and is fixed to end parts on the longer sides of the first frame at longitudinal ends thereof at least along the facing direction.
