2.2.3 DRIVE MECHANISMS
Belt drive
The PCU motor [A] drives the OPC belt drive roller [B] and transfer belt drive roller
[C] via gears and two joints [D]. The OPC [E] and transfer [F] belts rotate at the
same speed.
The two joints (for the transfer belt [G] and the OPC [H]) engage when the front
cover [I] is closed. When the front cover is closed, the two actuators [J] on the inner
side of the cover push the joint levers [K].
