PURPOSE:To facilitate mounting and dismounting of a photoreceptor by forming the body of a copying machine with a lower housing and an upper housing which is pivotally fitted thereto freely openably and providing an imposing body which receives the photoreceptor near the pivotally supporting position at the mounting or dismounting of the photoreceptor to the lower housing. CONSTITUTION:To remove a photoreceptor 4 from a supporting mechanism 20 in maintaining or exchanging the same, first the operator holds a knob 28 and pulls the same to the front side of an arrow against the elastic force of a retaining spring 31, then the flat part 32a of a flange 32 and the end part of a photoreceptor 4 space and a tapered part 32b spaces as well. Since this results in that the end part of the photoreceptor 4 has a clearance from the 2nd flange 32, the photoreceptor 4 is removed by manually supporting the same and spacing the other end part thereof from the 1st flange 26. As a result, the photoreceptor 4 is released from the supporting mechanism 20, and is automatically supported in the predetermined position, that is, by an imposing body 40 provided in the lower position thereof and is guided by a guiding body 50. |
