PURPOSE: To provide an imaging device capable of exactly forming latent images having high image quality on a photoreceptor or generating the exact electric signals corresponding to external image information in solid stage image pickup element arrays. CONSTITUTION: This imaging device is formed by arranging side by side and fixing a lens plate 3 for arranging and supporting plural pieces of lenses 3a linearly at prescribed intervals and a base plate 1 arranged and packaged with many image element arrays 2 in a straight form in such a manner that the respective lenses 3a and the respective image element arrays 2 correspond one to one. Tapered parts 2b are formed in the respective outer peripheral parts of the image element arrays 2 and a template 4 having plural pieces of the holes 4a of the size smaller than the outside dimensions of the respective image element arrays 2 is arranged on the base plate 1. The tapered parts 2b of the respective image element arrays 2 are pressed by the peripheral parts of the holes of the template 4, by which the image element arrays 2 are packaged onto the base plate 1. |
