Original Abstract Submitted
An exposure device that exposes a photoconductor, includes a substrate having one surface on which a plurality of light emitting elements is mounted and the other surface on which a contact is provided, a lens array that condenses light emitted from the light emitting elements on the photoconductor, a metal housing that has a lens support portion that supports the lens array, a first substrate support portion supports one end side of the substrate in a lateral direction, and a second substrate support portion supports the other end side of the substrate in the lateral direction, and a conductive member that has a first conductive portion in contact with the contact and a second conductive portion in contact with a surface of the first substrate support portion that supports the substrate, and allows conduction between the substrate and the metal housing.
