<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a cleaning device suitable for removing the deposit of flux produced in a soldering stage and a resin film such as the photoreceptor layer of an OPC drum used in an image forming apparatus or the release layer of a fixing roller, although a device has already been proposed, which removes a deposit adhering to an object to be cleaned by using a solid cleaning medium without using water nor a solvent. <P>SOLUTION: Using a flake-like cleaning medium M having greater pencil hardness than the resin film of a cleaning object and by causing the medium to fly by a high-speed air-flow and to collide with the object, the cleaning medium M bites into the film like deposit in spite of a small mass, since the film like deposit is easier to be dented and contact force is concentrated on the end of the cleaning medium M. As a result, it improves cleaning of a component of a complicated shape, removal of a film like deposit, or cleanliness of the cleaning medium, so that the cleaning quality is enhanced. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
