る。2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, an exposure image corresponding to image information is formed on a photosensitive drum that has been uniformly charged by using an LED head or other linear exposure head, and then toner is applied to the exposure image from the developing sleeve side. Printers and facsimiles are known in which the toner image is adhered, and then the toner image can be transferred to plain paper or other recording material guided to a transfer position via a resist roller. In the LED head constituting the exposure head, a selfoc lens array made of glass or resin is arranged on the front surface of a head array in which LED chips are arranged in a row, and these are integrally formed by a resin or metal support. It has a structure to hold, but L
Since the ED chips have variations in light amount and wavelength between individual chips at the manufacturing stage, chips having the same level of light amount and wavelength are grouped to form a chip array.

る。Therefore, in the above apparatus, since the reference light amount level of the LED chip array incorporated in each device is different, a light amount correction substrate is incorporated for each device and the light amount correction knob provided on the substrate is used. The light intensity is being adjusted. Since a special light quantity measuring device is required to perform the light quantity correction, conventionally, the light quantity correction is performed at a stage in which a controller incorporating the LED head and the light quantity correction substrate is provided in the device at the manufacturing stage. Further, after the image is output at the shipping stage, the product is shipped.

る。However, the LED chip array is prone to heat generation deterioration due to long-term use,
In addition, a part of the array-shaped chip group may be damaged. In such a case, it is necessary to replace the LED heads on a head-by-head basis. However, as described above, each LED head has a different reference light amount level. In addition, the light intensity must be corrected each time the replacement is performed. Further, the above-mentioned light quantity correction uses a special light quantity measuring device, and the fact that the service person performs this at the user's installation place not only makes maintenance and replacement work extremely complicated, but also makes accurate light quantity correction difficult.

The first feature is that it is integrally attached to a frame. A second feature is that the LED frame is detachably mountable to a main body side frame that pivotally supports the photoconductor drum, and the space between the LED head and the photoconductor drum is adjusted during the mounting. The interval adjusting means is arranged on the LED frame side.

減につながる。According to such a technical means, the light quantity of the LED chip array can be corrected before the LED head is mounted on the device. In other words, the light quantity of the LED frame is not corrected for each device. Since it is possible to adjust the level, prepare a large number of LED frames whose levels have been adjusted in advance at the manufacturer stage, and if deterioration or chip damage occurs, replace it not by the head alone but by the frame unit. There is no need for the service person to correct the light amount at the user's installation site, and the maintenance and replacement work can be greatly simplified and can be performed in a short time as compared with the conventional method, which reduces the burden on the dealer and the user.

事が出来るように構成している。Now, when the frame-by-frame replacement is performed as described above, the problem is the regulation of the distance between the LED head and the photosensitive drum. That is, it is necessary to accurately control the interval in order to form a clear image, but if the replacement is performed in frame units as described above, assembly / processing errors and variations of the frame and the head will occur. In other words, the regulation interval is different for each LED frame unit, and accurate focal length accuracy cannot be obtained. Therefore, in the present invention, the LED frame is provided with a space adjusting means for adjusting a space between the LED head and the photosensitive drum,
When the frame is attached to the main body frame side, in other words, it can be easily adjusted on the user installation side according to each device.

It is intended to solve the various problems mentioned above all at once.
