A structure for supporting a photoconductive element included in an image forming apparatus. The shaft of the photoconductive element is supported by two adjoining bearings. One of the bearings is pressed against a framework or a slider by a leaf spring to be thereby fixed in place. The other bearing is movable relative to the framework or the slider and pressed against the shaft by another spring in the same direction as the first-mentioned bearing. The structure prevents the shaft and, therefore, the photoconductive element from tilting or shaking to thereby prevent an exposing position on the element from being changed.
