Patent abstract
The present invention provides a detector that brings a cleaning blade made from elastomer in contact with a photoconductor to observe vibrations of the cleaning blade or a supporting member for the cleaning blade and calculates an index value based upon a normal condition using multi-dimensional data for each frequency obtained by Fourier transform of the vibrations as signals, thereby detecting abnormality of a condition of contact of the cleaning blade with the photoconductor such as the presence of adhesion material or damage to the photoconductor.
