Electrophotographic photoreceptor and image forming apparatus having same

1. An electrophotographic photoreceptor comprising:

a cylindrical body; and

a film forming layer formed on an outer surface of the cylindrical body and having a photosensitive layer,

wherein the electrophotographic photoreceptor is divided into a first region where an electrostatic latent image is formed and second regions provided at both end portions in an axial direction of the cylindrical body,

wherein the cylindrical body includes annular protrusions which are formed in the second regions and have outer diameters larger than an outer diameter of the cylindrical body in the first region,

wherein the film forming layer in the second regions includes inclined annular surfaces whose outer diameters decrease toward end portions in the axial direction, and

wherein the inclined annular surfaces are formed in a curved shape due to the presence of the annular protrusions of the cylindrical body.

2. The electrophotographic photoreceptor of claim 1 , wherein the film forming layer is formed of amorphous silicon.

3. An image forming apparatus comprising:

the electrophotographic photoreceptor of claim 1 ; and

a processing device arranged around the electrophotographic photoreceptor,

wherein the processing device includes rollers contacting with the inclined annular surfaces of the electrophotographic photoreceptor to maintain a position of the electrophotographic photoreceptor with respect to the processing device, and

wherein the processing device is a charging device configured to charge an outer surface of the electrophotographic photoreceptor.
