    Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a rotatable image carrier that carries an image, a charging unit having a rotatable charging member that charges the image carrier, a developing unit that supplies a developer including at least toner to the charged image carrier, and a cleaning unit having a cleaning member that cleans a surface of the image carrier. At least when the image forming apparatus is not performing image formation, the charging member on which the toner is carried is caused to rotate at a peripheral velocity different from a peripheral velocity at which the image carrier rotates.

    Abstract: A conducting brush includes a substantially cylindrical insulating film base; and a conducting fiber adhering to an outer peripheral surface of the insulating film base through a conducting adhesive or a conducting adhesive medium. An outer peripheral portion where the conducting fiber adheres and at least a portion of an inner peripheral portion of the insulating film base have electrical continuity through the conducting adhesive or the conducting adhesive medium.

    Abstract: A cleaning brush includes bristles that have ends which come into contact with an object to be cleaned having irregularities on a surface thereof, and a brush base on which the bristles are arranged. The bristles include first bristles and second bristles. The first bristles have a thickness too great to reach bottoms of recessed portions of the irregularities on the surface of the object to be cleaned. The second bristles have a thickness small enough to reach the bottoms of the recessed portions of the irregularities on the surface of the object to be cleaned.

    Abstract: A charging device includes a charging member that is rotatably provided in contact with a surface of a charge member, and that charges the surface of the charge member with contactors thereof. The contactors contact the surface of the charging member at charging areas. Directions of inclinations of the contactors differ in accordance with the charging areas.

    Abstract translation: 充电装置包括充电构件,该充电构件可旋转地设置成与充电构件的表面接触,并且对充电构件的表面充电与其接触器。 接触器在充电区域接触充电部件的表面。 接触器倾斜方向根据充电区域而有所不同。
