A cleaning device excellent in cleaning performance and durability and an
image forming apparatus using the same are provided. The cleaning device
includes an edge part coming into contact with the surface of the image
carrier; the edge part is made of an elastic expanded body having an
expanded cell; and number particle size distribution values D10 and D90
of the expanded cell meet the following requirements (1) and (2) against
a number particle size distribution value D10 of the toner. (1) The
number particle size distribution value D10 of the expanded cell is 1/4
times or more of the number particle size distribution value D10 of the
toner. (2) The number particle size distribution value D90 of the
expanded cell is not more than 50 times of the number particle size
distribution value D10 of the toner.
