ABSTRACT:
An image forming device includes a device main body, a drum unit, a stud which is fixed to a frame of the device main body, and a drum drive transmitting gear which is supported by the stud such that the drum drive transmitting gear can axially rotate. The drum unit includes a unit frame and a photoconductive drum which is supported on the unit frame such that the photoconductive drum can axially rotate. The photoconductive drum has a driven transmission gear at one end. When the drum unit is inserted into the device main body, the drum drive transmitting gear and the driven transmission gear are engaged with each other, and an end portion of the stud can be inserted into and received by an engaging hole of the unit frame of the drum unit.
