A cleaning unit includes: a cleaning member that cleans the surface of the image carrier; a cleaning container that stores developer removed by the cleaning member; a cleaning support that is formed by bending a plate and includes a cleaning-supporting portion supporting the other end portion of the cleaning member and a supported portion angled with respect to the cleaning-supporting portion by bending; a supporting-portion-of-support that includes a facing portion facing the supported portion, is provided at the cleaning container, and supports the cleaning support; a damping member that is disposed between the supported portion and the facing portion, is formed so as to be elastically deformable, and regulates vibration of the cleaning member; and a securing member that secures the cleaning support to the supporting-portion-of-support at a position adjacent to the damping member.

A cleaner includes a cleaning member having a distal end in contact with an image carrier so as to remove developer attached to the image carrier, a cleaning container that stores the removed developer, a cleaning support body including a cleaning support portion extending from the distal end to a proximal end of the cleaning member so as to support the proximal end of the cleaning member, a bent portion bent from the cleaning support portion, and a supported portion supported by the cleaning container, a vibration-damping body in contact with an end of the bent portion opposite the cleaning support portion so as to regulate vibration of the cleaning support body, and a vibration-damping-body fixing member supported by the cleaning container and having a clamp portion that clamps the vibration-damping body between the vibration-damping-body fixing member and the end of the bent portion.

A discharger includes a discharger main body that is adapted to be attached to and detached from a holding member of an image forming apparatus, a first electrode member that is formed of a wire rod, a second electrode member, a voltage for discharge being applied between the first and second electrode members, an electrode cleaning member that cleans the first electrode member, a detected portion that is integrally disposed to the electrode cleaning member, a detecting member that detects the detected portion while the electrode cleaning member is in a predetermined reference position, a cleaning member conveyer that conveys the electrode cleaning member in both directions which toward and away from the reference position, and a movement control unit that controls a movement of the cleaning member conveyer by the conveyer.

A discharger includes a discharging member that faces a member to be charged and discharges electricity by applying voltage; and a grid member that is disposed between the discharging member and the member to be charged and regulates electric discharge from the discharging member. The grid member has holes with a predetermined shape and extending through the grid member from the discharging member toward the member to be charged, and has a first region with the holes arranged at a first inclination angle, a second region with the holes arranged at a second inclination angle, and a boundary between the first and second regions and extending in the extending direction of the discharging member. When the first region is symmetrically projected onto the second region with respect to the boundary, an arrangement pattern of the holes in the first region and an arrangement pattern of the holes in the second region are positionally displaced relative to each other.

There is provided a cleaning device including: a cleaning member disposed that cleans the discharge member; a guide member disposed along the length direction of the discharge member and guides the cleaning member in the length direction of the discharge member; and a drive device which, when executing a cleaning operation where the drive device reciprocally moves the cleaning member along the guide member from a standby position set on one length direction end portion of the discharge member or a return operation where the drive device returns the cleaning member along the guide member to the standby position, applies to the cleaning member a driving force in an opposite direction of a moving direction in which movement of the cleaning member is to be started and thereafter applies to the cleaning member a driving force in the moving direction.

An image forming device includes an image carrier, a cleaning device, a charging device and a shielding member. The image carrier carries a toner image thereon. The cleaning device removes a toner on the image carrier. The charging device charges the image carrier. The shielding member is disposed between the cleaning device and the charging device. The shielding member is in contact with the image carrier in an area where the image carrier is charged.
