<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a process cartridge where the exchange of members which do not yet reach exchange time in a process device can be suppressed, and to provide an image forming apparatus provided therewith. <P>SOLUTION: A cleaning module 6 as a process means comprises a brush module 6a as a submodule integrally provided with a plurality of members whose exchange time is almost the same, and the brush module 6a is attachable/detachable to the cleaning module 6. In this way, when a plurality of the members provided at the brush module 6a reach exchange time, as the other members in which exchange time is different from that of a plurality of the members provided at the cleaning module 6 are left in the cleaning module 6, only the brush module 6a can be removed from the cleaning module 6, so as to be exchanged. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT |
