Abstract
A scanner using a polygonal mirror includes a rotor with a magnet mounted thereon, a rotary shaft on which the rotor is mounted, and a stator with a coil facing the magnet at a preselected distance. The rotor is machined in the form of a square pillar having mirror surfaces at sides thereof to thereby form the polygonal mirror. A recess is formed in one major surface of the rotor while the magnet is press fitted in the recess. The scanner with this configuration needs a minimum number of parts, obviates the need for highly accurate adhesion and is durable and easy to produce.
