Abstract:
A cleaning member includes a shaft body and a spiral portion including a contact portion that is formed on an outer peripheral surface of the shaft body, protrudes spirally, and comes into contact with a body to be cleaned with the rotation of the shaft body, steps that are formed on the contact portion and face a rotation direction of the shaft body and an end portion that is positioned on a side where the contact portion comes into contact with the body to be cleaned first in a width direction of the contact portion and of which the height from the shaft body is gradually reduced from the height of the contact portion so that the end portion does not come into contact with the body to be cleaned.
