PHOTORECEPTOR OPTICAL FATIGUE DETECTING DEVICE, PHOTORECEPTOR UNIT AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a photoreceptor optical fatigue detecting device that detects the degree of light reception of a photoreceptor, regardless of whether the photoreceptor is set in an image forming apparatus, thereby detecting the degree of optical fatigue of the photoreceptor, and to provide a photoreceptor unit and an image forming apparatus.;SOLUTION: There are disposed near the photoreceptor 51: an optical detecting section 56 that detects received light; a CPU 55 that calculates the time for which light is received by the photoreceptor, and determines the condition of the photoreceptor, on the basis of the calculated time; an informing section 58 that informs the determined condition; and a power source section 54 that supplies power to the optical detecting section 56, CPU 55, and informing section 58.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT
