Holding mechanism for long length optical element, optical scanning device, and image forming device
Patent number: 8270053Abstract: A holding mechanism for a long length optical element, which extends in a main scanning direction that is a movement direction of a deflected luminous flux by an optical deflector, and leads the deflected luminous flux to a scanned surface, includes; a holding member which is placed in a sub-scanning direction orthogonal to the main scanning direction and holds the long length optical element in at least two places. The holding member has, an adjusting section which deflects the long length optical element in the sub-scanning direction and controls a tilt of the long length optical element in a sub-scanning cross-section and/or occurrences of a tilt distribution in a longitudinal direction in the sub-scanning cross-section.Type: GrantFiled: August 21, 2008Date of Patent: September 18, 2012Assignee: Ricoh Company, Ltd.Inventors: Taku Amada, Hiromichi Atsuumi -
