FIELD: image forming devices.
SUBSTANCE: claimed invention relates to a technological cartridge and an electrophotographic image forming device, into which a process cartridge is removably mounted. Claimed technological cartridge comprises: an electrophotographic photosensitive drum, a drum flange, fixed to one longitudinal end of said electrophotographic photosensitive drum, a connecting member, which receives a rotational force for rotating said electrophotographic photosensitive drum and transmits a rotating force to the electrophotographic photosensitive drum through said drum flange, a first adjusting portion that controls the movement of said electrophotographic photosensitive drum in a direction from one longitudinal end of said electrophotographic photosensitive drum to another longitudinal end of said electrophotographic photosensitive drum, and a second adjusting portion, which controls the movement of said electrophotographic photosensitive drum in a direction away from other said longitudinal end of said electrophotographic photosensitive drum to one said longitudinal end of said electrophotographic photosensitive drum, wherein said drum flange has a first adjustable portion adapted to control first said adjusting portion, a second adjustable portion adapted to control said second regulating portion, and a connecting portion, which is connected to said connecting element, so the connecting member can move relative to said drum flange.
EFFECT: technical result consists in the exact positioning of the connecting element of the process cartridge, which is intended to sense the rotational force from the main assembly of the electrophotographic image forming apparatus relative to the rotating part of the main assembly of the device, the positioning takes place along the axial line transmitting the rotating force of the part, and also in the possibility of accurately aligning the axial line of the electrophotographic photosensitive member with the axial line of the interacting part of the main assembly of the electrophotographic image forming apparatus, and also in the possibility of accurately alignment of the axial line of the connecting member with the axial line of the interacting part of the main assembly of the electrophotographic image forming device.
