Light-emitting substrate, method for manufacturing the same, optical writing device, and image forming apparatus

1. A light-emitting substrate comprising:

a first light-emitting device including at least one first terminal;

a second light-emitting device including at least one second terminal; and

a substrate having mounted thereon the first light-emitting device and the second light-emitting device, the substrate including a first hole having a first size to allow the at least one first terminal of the first light-emitting device to pass through and a second hole having a second size to allow the at least one second terminal of the second light-emitting device to pass through, the first hole and the second hole including at least one first receiving portion and at least one second receiving portion, respectively, the at least one first receiving portion and the at least one second receiving portion being concaved inward in a direction towards a first center of the first hole and a second center of the second hole, respectively, wherein

the at least one first receiving portion of the first hole receives the at least one first terminal of the first light-emitting device, and the at least one second receiving portion of the second hole receives the at least one second terminal of the second light-emitting device,

a first line drawn through the first center of the first hole and a third center of the at least one first receiving portion of the first hole does not align with a second line drawn through the second center of the second hole and a fourth center of the at least one second receiving portion of the second hole,

a first width of a first opening of the at least one first receiving portion and a second width of a second opening of the at least one second receiving portion are larger than a diameter of each of the at least one first terminal and the at least one second terminal, and

a distance between the first center of the first hole and the second center of the second hole corresponds to a vertical distance between a first polygon mirror and a second polygon mirror of an image forming apparatus.

2. The light-emitting substrate set forth in claim 1 ,

wherein each of the at least one first receiving portion and the at least one second receiving portion has a surface that is untreated.

3. The light-emitting substrate set forth in claim 1 ,

wherein a third size of the at least one first receiving portion and a fourth size of the at least one second receiving portion are larger than the diameter of the at least one first terminal and the at least one second terminal.

4. An optical writing device comprising:

the light-emitting substrate set forth in claim 1 ; and

a photosensitive unit configured to receive light from the first light-emitting device and the second light-emitting device to allow electrostatic latent images to be written.

5. An image forming apparatus comprising the optical writing device set forth in claim 4 .

6. The light-emitting substrate set forth in claim 1 , wherein six receiving portions are arranged on a corresponding circumference of each of the first hole and the second hole.

7. The light-emitting substrate set forth in claim 1 , wherein each of the at least one first terminal and the at least one second terminal is connected to a respective solder terminal.

8. A method for manufacturing a light-emitting substrate comprising:

preparing a first light-emitting device including at least one first terminal;

preparing a second light-emitting device including at least one second terminal;

preparing a substrate to mount thereon the first light-emitting device and the second light-emitting device, the substrate including a first hole having a first size to allow the at least one first terminal of the first light-emitting device to pass through and a second hole having a second size to allow the at least one second terminal of the second light-emitting device to pass through, the first hole and the second hole including at least one first receiving portion and at least one second receiving portion, respectively, the at least one first receiving portion and the at least one second receiving portion being concaved inwards in a direction towards a first center of the first hole and a second center of the second hole, respectively, and a first line drawn through the first center of the first hole and a third center of the at least one first receiving portion of the first hole does not align with a second line drawn through the second center of the second hole and a fourth center of the at least one second receiving portion of the second hole;

passing the at least one first terminal and the at least one second terminal through the first hole and the second hole, respectively;

spreading the at least one first terminal and the at least one second terminal outwardly so that the at least one first receiving portion of the first hole receives the at least one first terminal of the first light-emitting device, and the at least one second receiving portion of the second hole receives the at least one second terminal of the second light-emitting device; and

soldering portions of the at least one first terminal and the at least one second terminal that are received by the at least one first receiving portion of the first hole and the at least one second receiving portion of the second hole, respectively,

wherein a first width of a first opening of the at least one first receiving portion and a second width of a second opening of the at least one second receiving portion are larger than a diameter of each of the at least one first terminal and the at least one second terminal, and

wherein a distance between the first center of the first hole and the second center of the second hole corresponds to a vertical distance between a first polygon mirror and a second polygon mirror of an image forming apparatus.
