A cleaning device for use in a laser printer, electrophotographic copier, facsimile apparatus or similar image recorder and having a cleaning blade for removing toner remaining on a photoconductive drum of the image recorder. Stubs individually extend outward from lower portions of opposite ends of a toner collecting tank. The tank is rotatably supported through the stubs by a frame on which the drum is rotatably mounted. Retaining members are securely mounted on the frame so as to retain the tank in position when the latter is rotated toward the drum. A pair of holder support members are provided in upper portions of opposite ends of the tank to support pins engageable with the retaining members of the frame and a blade holder which holds the cleaning blade. While the pins extend outward away from each other from the outer surfaces of the holder support members, the blade holder is rotatably mounted on shafts which extend inward toward each other from the inner surfaces of the holder support members in alignment with the pins.
