Description of the Related Art Generally, an electrophotographic apparatus such as an image forming apparatus represented by a copying machine, a printer, a facsimile and the like and an electrostatic recording apparatus have a cylindrical photosensitive member. After charging and exposing the photosensitive member to form an electrostatic latent image, toner is supplied onto the photosensitive member and developed by attaching toner to the latent image. The image is transferred to a recording medium such as paper, photographic paper, an OHP film, and the toner transferred onto the recording medium is melted and pressed to fix the recording medium. . Also, in this case, after the above series of work is once completed,
The photosensitive member is neutralized to a predetermined potential, and toner remaining on the photosensitive member is removed and cleaned to prepare for the next print.

る。In such an image forming apparatus, a cylindrical body is used for a photosensitive member, a charging roller, a transfer roller, a developing roller, a cleaning roller, a toner conveying roller, a paper feeding roller, and the like. With progress,
Various required characteristics have been imposed, and one of them is a requirement for dimensional accuracy. In particular, among these cylinders for OA equipment, the photoreceptor greatly influences the image obtained by the above-described series of printing operations, so that stricter dimensional accuracy is required. Is required to be manufactured with high productivity.

り、多大なコスト高を招くこととなる。Conventionally, cylindrical substrates for photoreceptors have been made of iron, copper,
It is manufactured using metals such as stainless steel and aluminum. In this case, in order to manufacture a small-diameter photoreceptor, the accuracy or roundness, concentricity, straightness, etc., of the material is poor due to poor workability of these materials. There is a drawback in terms of cost, and if this is used for a photoreceptor, image unevenness or poor cleaning will occur, or the cost will be greatly increased.

8−272117号公報)。[0005] Recently, in order to solve such a problem, instead of a conventional metal, a lightweight and excellent workability thermoplastic resin composition is extruded into a cylindrical shape or a cylindrical shape. It has also been proposed to manufacture a substrate for a photoreceptor by roughly polishing the outer peripheral surface thereof (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 8-272117).

There is a problem that a high level of surface polishing must be performed, a large number of steps are required, and the manufacturing process is complicated.

法は、未だ実用化には至っていない。Further, as described in the above-mentioned Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 8-272117, when obtaining a cylindrical base for a photoreceptor from a thermoplastic resin composition by injection molding, satisfactory dimensional accuracy is obtained. However, this injection molding method has not yet been put to practical use.

8−44445号公報)。On the other hand, with the miniaturization of copiers and the like, studies on a method of forming an image by a back exposure method in which exposure is performed from the inside of a drum-shaped photosensitive member have been actively conducted in recent years. That is, in this method, for the purpose of reducing the size of the image forming apparatus, a light-transmitting conductive layer and a photoconductor layer are laminated on a light-transmitting cylindrical support inside a small cylindrical photoconductor. At the same time as or immediately after the exposure head that performs light output according to image information is interpolated and the latent image is formed on the photoconductor layer by converging the light output of the exposure head and immediately after that, outside the photoconductor. After the latent image is formed into a toner image by developing means arranged face-to-face, the toner image is transferred to plain paper or the like by a transfer roller or other transfer means to form and record an image (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Sho.
8-44445).
