Cartridge and image forming apparatus with discharge electrode detachably attached to a frame

An image forming apparatus comprising:

• a cartridge including:
• a frame having a first support portion and a second support portion, and a pair of opposed side walls, the side walls being spaced apart in a first direction and extending in a second direction crossing the first direction;
• a photosensitive member;
• a holding portion positioned outside the frame at one of the side walls of the frame;
• a discharge induction electrode that is extended inside the frame;
• and
• a discharge electrode that is extended inside the frame in the first direction, the discharge electrode being positioned and supported by the first support portion and the second support portion, an end of the discharge electrode being releasably held by the holding portion;
• wherein each of the first support portion and the second support portion forms a shape having a notch opening in a direction opposite from the discharge induction electrode.

A cartridge comprising:

• a frame having a pair of opposed side walls spaced apart in a first direction;
• a first support member;
• a second support member spaced apart from the first support member in the first direction, the side walls extending in a second direction crossing the first direction;
• a holding portion positioned outside the frame at one of the side walls of the frame;
• a discharge induction electrode that is extended inside the frame;
• and
• a discharge electrode that is extended inside the frame in spaced parallel relation to the discharge induction electrode, the discharge electrode being positioned and supported by the first support member and the second support member, an end of the discharge electrode being releasably held by the holding portion.
