ABSTRACT:
A film photoconductor holding mechanism includes a substantially-cylindrical support having an opening which is shaped so as to have a notch at a part of a circumferential portion of the support in a longitudinal direction thereof. A bar-like photoconductor cap which is operative to engage with the opening of the support is provided. A film assembly is provided and has a peripheral length larger than an outer peripheral length of the support and is installed into the support in a state where the bar-like photoconductor cap is opened and is held in the support by the bar-like photoconductor cap. A guide bar and elastic member is disposed on the film assembly for guiding and tensioning the installation of the film assembly in the support, and a guide groove is defined in the bar-like photoconductor cap and is operative to be engaged with the guide bar.
