<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent matter removed from an inner circumferential surface of an endless belt-like member from falling when the belt-like member stops rotating and entering between the belt-like member and a support member of the belt-like member. <P>SOLUTION: The image forming device includes: a first cleaning member (6) arranged between a first contact member (T2a) in contact with an endless belt-like member (B) and a second support member (Rd) to remove matter adhered on the inner circumferential surface of the belt-like member (B); and a second cleaning member (7) arranged between the first cleaning member (6) and the second support member (Rd) to remove the matter adhered on the inner circumferential surface of the belt-like member (B) and passing through the first cleaning member (6). The first cleaning member (6) prevents the removed matter from moving downward in the center of gravity direction along the inner circumferential surface of the belt-like member (B). <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
