Abstract

A photoconductive drum device for electrostatic copying machines or the like includes a temperature maintaining heater bent to a cylindrical form and accommodated in the main body of a photoconductive drum. The heater is constructed with a base plate and a heat generator attached to the base plate. The base plate has a parallelogrammatic form substantially corresponding to a shape which is obtained by cutting a hollow cylinder, having a diameter approximate to the inside diameter of the drum main body, along a helical cut line and unbending the cylinder.
