Abstract:
An apparatus for producing electrophotographic photoreceptor comprising:a guide portion permitting passage of a cylindrical coated member therethrough; a coating-solution feed portion disposed around an outer periphery of the guide portion and allowing a coating solution to flow over an upper end of the guide portion thereby applying the coating solution to an outer periphery of the coated member thereby producing an electrophotographic photoreceptor; a coating-solution feeding assembly for feeding the coating solution to the coating-solution feed portion; a coating-solution recovery portion disposed around an outer periphery of the coating-solution feed portion via a partitioning wall for recovery of the coating solution flowing from the coating-solution feed portion over the partitioning wall; and an openable communicating portion for communication between the coating-solution feed portion and the coating-solution recovery portion.
