Toner guide plate

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To secure the removal of a developer from the surface of a photosensitive body and reduce damages of the photosensitive body surface, and improve workability by composing the toner guide plate of >=2 layers, and forming one of the layers of fluororesin. CONSTITUTION:The toner guide plate 3 is made of fluororesin and polyethylene terephthalate (PET film). Namely, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTEE) having 50mum thickness is used as the fluororesin 5, and a PET film 7 which is 50mum thick is stuck thereupon by using a both-sided adhesive tape 6 to form the toner guide plate 3. In this case, the projection extent of PTFE5 from the PET film 7 is preferably <=1mm. so as to prevent corrugation when it is adhered to the surface of the photosensitive body 1. This PTFE5 has the lowest coefficient of static friction among solids, so it never damages the surface of the photosensitive body 1. Further, the both are equal in thickness, so the workability is improved.
