Abstract:
A cleaning blade is a contacting device abutting a photoconductor which is a rotating body. The cleaning blade includes a contacting member that abuts the photoconductor, a supporting member that supports the contacting member, and a holding member that holds the supporting member. The supporting member supports the contacting member in a part protruding from the holding member. The holding member includes an upper surface on the side where the contacting member abuts the photoconductor and a lower surface on the opposite side of the upper surface. The holding member holds the supporting member with a supporting region away from the tip portion to the read end side. It is possible to reduce the fluctuation of the contact pressure abutting the rotating body.

Claim (Index 15):
An image forming apparatus comprising:\n the rotating body, the contacting device according to  claim 1 , and a housing for fixing the contacting device, wherein the contacting device is fixed to the housing at the rear end side with respect to an end portion of the distal end side in the supporting region.
