摘要:
An exposure head includes: a first light emitting device group including light emitting devices disposed at different positions in a direction perpendicular or approximately perpendicular to a moving direction of an exposed side; a second light emitting device group disposed in the moving direction of the exposed side with respect to the first light emitting device group; an imaging optical system imaging light from the light emitting devices to expose the exposed side; and a control unit allowing one light emitting device group out of either the first light emitting device group or the second light emitting device group to emit light on the basis of a driving signal.

A line head includes light-emitting element lines formed by arranging a plurality of light sources in a line shape in a main scanning direction. Each of the light sources is turned on/off corresponding to image data. Light beams emitted from the light sources pass through a lens array to form imaged spots on an exposed surface. The imaged spots generated by making the light beams emitted from the plurality of light sources imaged on the exposed surface are shifted by inches in the main scanning direction or a sub-scanning direction so as to overlap each other, thereby forming images. A gray-scale image of the images has a screen structure displayed on the basis of an area of dots or lines having a predetermined pitch. A diameter of each of the imaged spots formed on the exposed surface is set to be larger than a pitch between pixels and smaller than a pitch between lines or dots forming the screen. Gradation of an image is displayed by a combination of binary states of ON/OFF of each of the light sources.

An image forming apparatus is provided. The image forming apparatus includes a latent image carrier on which a latent image is formed, a line head that exposes the latent image carrier, and a developing section that develops the latent image. The line head includes a substrate, a light emitting element disposed on the substrate in a first direction, and a wiring installed on the substrate so as to be withdrawn from one end of the substrate in a second direction perpendicular to or substantially perpendicular to the first direction. The one end is disposed to be the developing section side.

Provided is an image forming apparatus including: a latent image carrier, on which a latent image is formed; an exposure head that includes a first light-emitting element and a second light-emitting element that is disposed in a direction in which the latent image container corresponding to the first light-emitting element is moved; and a control unit that changes over and performs a first latent image forming operation, in which the latent image is formed on the latent image container by using the first light-emitting element, and a second latent image forming operation, in which the latent image is formed on the latent image container by using the second light-emitting element, wherein the control unit controls a first light emission timing of the first light-emitting element in the first latent image forming operation and a second light emission timing of the second light-emitting element in the second latent image forming operation to be different from each other.
