Abstract

See full text

A leaf spring includes a first pressing portion that presses a reflection mirror supported by a mirror support, and an engagement portion that engages with an engagement portion provided on a housing. In a first state in which the engagement portions are engaged with each other, the first pressing portion presses the reflection mirror so that the reflection mirror is urged against the mirror support. When a state of the leaf spring is being changed to the first state from a second state in which the engagement portions are not engaged with each other, the leaf spring comes into contact with the engagement portion provided on the housing and rotates such that the engagement portion provided on the housing serves as a fulcrum.
