An image carrying member unit has an image carrying member, a charging member, a pair of first bearing members, a biasing member, and a supporting frame. The image carrying member is rotatable, and an electrostatic latent image is formed on it. The charging member is arranged in contact or close to the image carrying member, and electrostatically charges the image carrying member. The first bearing members support the charging member movably in directions to and away from the image carrying member. The biasing member biases the charging member toward the image carrying member. The supporting frame supports the image carrying member and the first bearing members. The first bearing members each have a fulcrum rotatably supported on the supporting frame, an arm extending radially from the fulcrum, and a bearing portion formed at a tip end of the arm and supporting axially either end of the charging member.
