<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To suppress an impact made because a rotary shaft comes into contact with an insertion hole of a supporting part when inserting the rotary shaft into the insertion hole. <P>SOLUTION: Leaf springs 60 are respectively provided in the respective insertion holes 55 of a first supporting plate 50 that supports the respective rotary shaft 3A (photoreceptor drum 3 or image forming unit 2). The leaf spring 60 is attached to a surface of the first supporting plate 50 on this side (Y(-) side), wherein a spring part 64 extending from a bent part 63 to an inner side (Y(+) side) is formed to extend to a back side surface of the first supporting plate 50. Thus, when inserting the rotary shaft 3A into the insertion hole 55, the impact made when the rotary shaft 3A comes into contact with the insertion hole 55 is absorbed by the leaf spring 60 and the impact is suppressed, in comparison with a case where the leaf spring 60 is not provided. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
