ABSTRACT:
Optical projection apparatus for an image transfer type electrophotographic copier, wherein prism-shaped reflecting members are disposed at both ends of an optical fiber type image transmitter formed by a bundle of optical fibers having graded refractive indexes, so as to refract an optical path, whereby an optical image of an original document is projected towards the side peripheral surface of a photosensitive drum, reducing the height of the optical projection apparatus and thus providing a compact copier. The optical projection apparatus is so constructed that the image transmitter formed by a bundle of optical fibers having graded refractive indexes is fixedly held between the prism-shaped reflecting members including a prism portion and a support or body portion integrally formed therewith.
