Image formation apparatus including cleaning member to remove roller adherents

An image formation apparatus comprising:

• an apparatus main body including an image formation unit:
• a roller attached to the apparatus main body and configured to convey a medium;
• and
• a pivot member provided pivotable about a rotation axis between a closed position and an open position with respect to the apparatus main body, wherein
• the pivot member includes:
• a cleaning member that is in contact with the roller to thereby remove adherents adhered to the roller from the roller in a state where the pivot member is in the closed position:
• a first storage section spaced apart from a contact position between the cleaning member and the roller and provided to accommodate the adherents removed by the cleaning member;
• and
• a second storage section that is provided communicating with the first storage section through an opening and configured to accommodate therein the removed adherents, wherein
• the pivot member is configured such that the removed adherents that is accommodated in the first storage section moves from the first storage section to the second storage section when the pivot member pivots from the closed position to the open position, and
• the image formation apparatus further comprises a guide surface that guides the removed adherents from the first storage section toward the opening, wherein
• the guide surface is inclined downward in a direction from the opening toward the roller in the state where the pivot member is in the closed position.
