Abstract
To provide a belt cleaning device and the like by which a more compact apparatus overall can be configured without compromising the ability to replace a secondary wiping member or the like, the invention is provided with a wiper which is provided on an inner side of a cleaning vessel and further downstream than a rotating brush in a direction of travel of a conveyance belt, and wipes off in a relative fashion a cleaning solution that has attached to the conveyance belt. The wiper includes a primary wiping blade and a secondary wiping blade which are in contact with the surface of the conveyance belt, and a primary fixation plate and a secondary fixation plate which are attached to the inner side of the cleaning vessel and to which the primary wiping blade and the secondary wiping blade, respectively, are fixed. An axis line of a fixation section formed in the secondary fixation plate is tilted toward the upstream side in the direction of travel and is prevented from intersecting with the primary fixation plate.
