An electrophotographic photosensitive drum is for a process cartridge
detachably mountable to a main assembly of an electrophotographic image
forming apparatus. The main assembly includes a motor, and a gear having
a non-circular twisted hole. The drum includes a cylinder having a
non-circular twisted projection engageable with the hole to receive a
driving force from the main assembly when the cartridge is mounted to the
main assembly. A recess is formed in the projection and has a bottom
portion and a side surface portion. When the projection receives a
pulling force toward the hole by rotation of the gear with the projection
and the hole being engaged with each other, the bottom portion contacts a
spherical surface portion provided at a central portion of the hole, and
the side surface portion contacts the spherical surface portion.
