Image Forming Apparatus
First Claim
1. An image forming apparatus comprising:
- a plurality of image forming units respectively having a photosensitive drum rotatable about a rotary axis and arranged side by side in an arrangement direction orthogonal to the rotary axis;
a support member configured to support the plurality of image forming units;
a frame, which is made of resin, is arranged at one end-side of the photosensitive drum in a direction of the rotary axis and is configured to support the support member, anda plurality of electrodes, which is supported to the frame and is configured to supply power to the plurality of image forming units,wherein the frame comprises;
a plurality of support projections, which is protruding inwardly from an inner surface of the frame and is configured to support the plurality of electrodes, anda projection part, which is arranged at an outer position of the plurality of support projections, at which the projection part overlaps with the support member, as viewed from the direction of the rotary axis, and is contactable to the support member in a case where the support member is moved towards the frame.
