Abstract:
An image forming apparatus has a holding member that holds a lens array and a circuit board. In the holding member, a portion where a light emission portion is attached, a portion where the lens array is attached, a portion where the circuit board is attached, and a portion where a first link member and a second link member are connected, are integrally molded as a molded resin article.

Claim (Index 1):
An image forming apparatus, comprising:\n a drum unit having a rotatable photosensitive drum; a circuit board having a plurality of light-emitting elements configured to emit light for exposing the photosensitive drum; a holding member configured to hold the circuit board and to expose the photosensitive drum in a state of being biased against the drum unit; and a movement mechanism configured to move the holding member distanced from the drum unit toward the drum unit and to bias against the drum unit, wherein the movement mechanism includes\n a sliding portion configured to move by sliding along a longitudinal direction of the holding member, \n a first spring that is provided to one end side of the holding member in the longitudinal direction, and that is configured to apply biasing force to the holding member, to bias the holding member against the drum unit, \n a second spring that is provided to an other end side of the holding member in the longitudinal direction, and that is configured to apply biasing force to the holding member, to bias the holding member against the drum unit, \n a first link portion that is pivotably connected to each of one end side of the sliding portion in the longitudinal direction and one end side of the holding member in the longitudinal direction, and that is configured to pivot in conjunction with the sliding movement of the sliding portion and to deform the first spring in conjunction with the pivoting, \n a second link portion that is pivotably connected to each of an other end side of the sliding portion in the longitudinal direction and the other end side of the holding member in the longitudinal direction, and that is configured to pivot in conjunction with the sliding movement of the sliding portion and to deform the second spring in conjunction with the pivoting, \n and wherein the holding member is a molded article where a portion holding the circuit board, a portion to which the first link portion is connected, and a portion to which the second link portion is connected, have been integrally molded.
