PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a process cartridge capable of enhancing waste toner carrying performance in a waste toner storing frame body. SOLUTION: As for the process cartridge provided with a photoreceptor drum (electrophotographic photoreceptor) and a processing means (electrifying roller 12) for working the drum, the process cartridge is provided with the waste toner storing frame body 13 for storing the waste toner 22 recovered from the photoreceptor drum 11 by a cleaning blade 14, a sheet-like rotating member 23 which is freely rotatably supported near the cleaning blade 14 in the waste toner storing frame body 13 so as to carry the waste toner 22 into the waste toner storing frame body 13, and a flexible sheet member 24 which is arranged in nearly parallel to the shaft of the rotating member 23 and which is partly fixed to the inside of the waste toner storing frame body 13, and the sheet member 24 is arranged so that the leading end which is not fixed to the body 13 is arranged within the rotational extent of the rotating member 23, and also, outside the rotational diameter of the sheet thickness of the rotating member 23 taking the center of the rotating member 23 as an axis. |
