Abstract

See full text

A compact, inexpensive paper detack device has a detack claw mounted to the bottom of a cleaning assembly has a rotatably mounted shaft supporting the detack claw, a pair of shaft support members extending downward from the cleaning housing each having a recess in its lower corner adjacent the imaging member for supporting the shaft and at least one elastic support member extending downward from the cleaning assembly in cooperative association with the pair of shaft support members pressing the shaft into the recess. The elastic support member has a tip bent forward toward the shaft forming a bearing space between the recess and the tip smaller than the diameter of the shaft to provide a snap fit for the shaft on insertion into the bearing between the recess and the elastic support member. The detack claw has an elastomeric tip and the angle between the bottom of the claw and the tangent at the contact point between the detack claw and the drum is between 120.degree. and about 140.degree.. The detack claw is attached to an axially slidable member rotatably mounted to the shaft having a groove therein for removing foreign matter entering the space between the shaft and the axially slidable member.
