PHOTOSENSITIVE BODY AND IMAGE FORMING DEVICE UTILIZING IT

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To surely gain continuity between a substrate of a photosensitive body and a supporting shaft and to prevent the generation of electrical trouble such as insulation failure with a simple constitution. SOLUTION: In the device, a stable continuity is gained between the substrate 21 and the supporting shaft 26 without generating any local tearing or falling off as in a conductive brush when used over a long period of time by gaining continuity between the substrate 21 of the photosensitive body 2 and the supporting shaft 26 by a conductive member 24 consisting of an assembly of short fibers with conductivity.
