ABSTRACT:
A cleaning apparatus for removing toner remaining on a moving photoconductive member has a resilient blade in bearing contact with the surface of the photoconductive member and reciprocatingly movable laterally of the direction of movement of the surface, a seal member provided at each end of the photoconductive member and having a width in the direction of the lateral movement of the blade equal to at least the range of lateral movement of the corresponding end of the blade, the seal member being disposed in contact with the rear surface of the blade in the range of lateral movement of the blade end. Toner particles are thereby prevented from falling from the blade off the end of the photoconductive member.
