Patent ID: 8831477

Claim:
A bearing mechanism for a photosensitive drum for connection with the photosensitive drum and an electronic imaging device, the electronic imaging device having a rotary driving member and a conductive shaft mounted to an axle of the rotary driving member, the bearing mechanism comprising: a transmission member synchronously rotatably inserted into the photosensitive drum and having an inner portion located inside the photosensitive drum, an outer portion located outside the photosensitive drum, and a through hole communicating with the inner portion and the outer portion, the outer portion of the transmission member being for coupling with the rotary driving member to further enable the transmission member to be driven by the rotary driving member for rotation; a conductive piece mounted to the inner portion of the transmission member and provided with an external side abutting against an internal wall of the photosensitive drum such that the conductive piece is electrically connected with the photosensitive drum; a conductive bar slidably mounted inside the through hole of the transmission member for electrically abutting against the conductive shaft; and a spring member electrically connected between the conductive piece and the conductive bar for applying a rebound force to the conductive bar to drive the conductive bar toward a direction away from the inner portion of the transmission member, wherein the transmission member comprises a stepped portion formed inside the through hole and the conductive bar comprises a stop portion for abutting against the stepped portion, the stop portion being located between the stepped portion and the spring member.
