ABSTRACT:
A cleaning device for use in image forming equipment has a cleaning blade for removing a toner remaining on an image carrier in the form of a photoconductive element, and a toner discharge coil for driving the removed toner out of the device. A rotatable member is interposed between the blade and the coil and between the coil and the photoconductive element. The toner scraped off the photoconductor element by the blade falls onto the rotatable member and is thereby transported to the coil.
