ABSTRACT:
An image formation device includes an image-bearing body that rotates, a charging roller that contacts the image-bearing body and is rotated by the rotation of the image-bearing body, and charges the image-bearing body, a cleaning roller that contacts the charging roller and is rotated by the rotation of the charging roller, and cleans the charging roller, and a first auxiliary roller that is provided coaxially with the charging roller, contacts the image-bearing body and is rotated by the rotation of the image-bearing body. The image formation device satisfies the following relation:in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="lead"?F1>F2>F3in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="tail"?where F1represents a friction force between the first auxiliary roller and the image-bearing body, F2represents a friction force between the image-bearing body and the charging roller and F3represents a friction force between the charging roller and the cleaning roller.
