PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image forming device capable of preventing leak even in a state where the bristles of a conductive brush forming a ground path are caught in space between a photoreceptor pipe stock and a flange. SOLUTION: This image forming device 1 is equipped with an image carrier 5 on whose surface an electrostatic latent image corresponding to an original image is formed by exposure, the conductive brush held inside the image carrier 5 and forming a part of the ground path for discharging the charge of an exposed part on the surface of the image carrier 5, a conductor 7 positioned to be opposed to the image carrier 5, and an insulating member 47 provided between the image carrier 5 and the conductor 7 and preventing the bristles 34a of the conductive brush exposed from the image carrier 5 from coming into contact with the conductor 7. |
