Abstract
A power supply structure includes a bearing, a first spring, and a second spring. The bearing supports a rotary member that axially rotates while contacting with a contact target. While receiving power, the first spring contacts with and presses the bearing with an end portion of the first spring to bring the rotary member into contact with the contact target. The second spring extends from the first spring toward the contact target and contacts with the rotary member.
