<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image forming apparatus which is prevented from getting larger in size, and suppresses speed variation of a photoreceptor so as to avoid deterioration of image quality caused thereby even when a sliding member is used over a long term. <P>SOLUTION: The image forming apparatus 1 is equipped with: a flange 51 configured to fix the photoreceptor 11 on the surface of which an electrostatic latent image is formed while rotating; a frame 61 configured to rotatably hold the flange 51 through a rotary shaft 52; and the sliding member 63 provided in a sliding holder 62 held by the frame 61 and configured to rub the flange 51 by rotation of the photoreceptor 11. The sliding member 63 is equipped with sliding surfaces 63a and 63b rubbing an inner peripheral surface 51a and an axial-direction surface 51b of the flange 51. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT |
