摘要:
An optical scanning apparatus is constructed to detect one or more defective or damaged light emitting devices of a light source unit and forms images having substantially the same quality as that of the images formed when all of a plurality of light emitting devices of a light source of the apparatus are functioning normally even when any one of the plurality of light emitting devices are damaged or broken, without decreasing the image forming performance of the apparatus. The optical scanning apparatus detects one or more damaged or broken light emitting devices and then compensates for the light omitted due to the damaged or broken light emitting devices using the normally functioning light emitting devices without decreasing the image forming speed or quality of the optical scanning apparatus. In order to compensate for a defective light emitting device, the optical scanning apparatus uses various solutions such as increasing the rotating speed of the deflector while increasing the modulation speed of the light emitting devices by the same amount, increasing beam spot diameter in the subscanning direction, changing the output power of the light emitting devices on a surface to be scanned in order to increase beam spot diameter in the main scanning direction and the subscanning direction, and changing the focal length of the line image forming optical apparatus and increasing either the rotation speed of the deflector or the rotation speed of the surface to be scanned or photoconductive drum.

A multi-beam optical scanning apparatus includes a semiconductor laser array slanted relative to a sub-scanning direction and emitting a plurality of optical beams; a coupling lens converting a shape of each optical beam emitted from the semiconductor laser array; and an aperture with an opening having a size of Am×As, arranged after the coupling lens in a direction in which the optical beam progresses, where Am is a dimension of the opening in a main scanning direction and As is a dimension of the opening in the sub-scanning direction. When a length in the main scanning direction of a contour line defined by 1/e2 strength of a maximum strength of an optical beam at the position of the aperture is Lm, and a length in the sub-scanning direction of the contour line defined by 1/e2 strength of the maximum strength of the optical beam at the position of the aperture is Ls, the following conditional expressions are satisfied: Am

摘要:
A light source emitting a light flux; a coupling optical system couples the light flux from the light source to a subsequent optical system by transforming it into a parallel light flux, an approximately convergent light flux or an approximately divergent light flux; a light deflector reflects the light flux from the coupling optical system with a deflection reflective surface, and deflects it; a scanning and imaging optical system condenses the deflected light flux from the light deflector onto a surface to be scanned as a beam spot; and a correcting optical system is provided for self correcting shift of focal position of the beam spot on the surface to be scanned occurring due to environmental change or the like. The correcting optical system comprises at least one pair of a resin-made lens having an anamorphic surface having a negative power in each of main scanning direction and sub-scanning direction and a glass-made lens having an anamorphic surface having a positive power at least in sub-scanning direction, and is disposed between the coupling optical system and deflection reflective surface.
