PURPOSE:To stably recover residual toner without causing secular change over a long term by recovering the residual toner without deformation by the use of a rotary magnet body. CONSTITUTION:The rotary magnet body 23 attracting the residual toner T is provided. A scraper 22 scraping the residual toner which is brought into contact with the surface of a magnet 21 and attracted is provided in the rotational area of the magnet 21. The magnet body 23 is constituted of a pedestal 20 and the magnet 21. Therefore, by rotating the magnet body 23 counterclockwise with the rotating part 20b of the pedestal 20 as center, the residual toner T removed at the contact part between the leading edge 11a of a cleaning blade 11 and a photosensitive body 1 is attracted by the magnet 21. By rotating the pedestal 20 further in a state where the residual toner T is attracted, the residual toner T attracted to the magnet 21 is scraped by the scraper 22 and recovered inside a toner storing part 7. |
