| 摘要 |
An optical scanning device in which optical beams from a light-emitting element are passed through a collimator lens and are deflected by a deflector and which scans over an image carrier by using the deflected optical beams, comprising: a device housing; and a holder supported on a base of the housing so as to be rotatable about an optical axis of the collimator lens, and penetrating through a through-hole in a side wall of the housing along the optical axis without contacting the side wall, wherein the holder includes first and second holder parts, the first holder part located inside the housing, and the second holder part located outside the housing, the collimator lens is held by the first holder part, the light-emitting element is held by the second holder part, and the optical beams pass through the through-hole in the side wall and reach the collimator lens.
