ABSTRACT:
An image forming apparatus includes an exposure lamp which is detachably stored in a lamp house. A cover to open and close an opening of the lamp house is prohibited from being opened by an original supporting stand while it is in an operating region for exposure of an original to light. A release member allows the original supporting stand to move beyond the operating region so that the cover can be opened to exchange the exposure lamp. When the original support member is moved beyond the operating region, an electric power source is cut off by the release member. A moving member connected with the cover also cuts off the electric power source when the cover is opened. A reflecting mirror provided around the exposure lamp is moved away from the exposure lamp automatically by a link member when the cover is opened.
