(Prior Art) For example, as a method for manufacturing an electrophotographic photosensitive drum by applying a coating solution containing a photosensitive substance to a cylindrical drum, a method of immersing the drum in a coating solution while holding the drum substantially vertically is used. Then, the drum is withdrawn from the coating solution at a constant speed in the axial direction to form a coating film having a uniform film thickness on the outer peripheral surface of the drum.

In the electrophotographic photosensitive drum, it is preferable that a coating liquid is not applied to the end of the drum in order to fit a flange to the end of the drum or perform a conductive process. But,
In the above-described immersion method, the drum is held substantially vertically and retreated from the inside of the coating liquid, so that the coating liquid is always applied to the lower end of the drum to form a coating film. For this reason, the drum on which the coating liquid has been applied by the dipping method must remove the coating film formed on the end.

In order to remove the coating film formed on the end of the drum, there is a method in which the end of the drum from which the coating is to be removed is immersed in a solvent capable of dissolving the coating. In such a method, the lower end of the drum held vertically is immersed in a solvent to remove the coating film on the lower end of the drum. Also, in order to reliably remove the coating film at the lower end of the drum, the drum is repeatedly moved up and down with a stroke corresponding to the length of the drum end at which the coating film is to be removed, and the coating film at the drum end is removed. In some cases, a part to be immersed in a solvent and a state in which the part is removed from the solvent are alternately repeated.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) As described above, when the drum end is immersed in the solvent while raising and lowering the drum with a constant stroke, as shown in FIG. The part to be removed is reliably removed. However, when the coating film 11 at the end of the drum 10 is removed in this way, the end of the drum 10 from which the coating film 11 is to be removed, and the portion where the coating film 11 other than the end does not need to be removed. At the boundary with the coating film 11, the coating film 11 remains in a dissolved state, and at that portion, the coating film may be formed thick. When a thick coating film is formed as described above, bubbles may be generated in the coating film portion in the next heat treatment step.

(Means for Solving the Problems) According to the method for removing a coating film on a drum end of the present invention, a drum end having a coating film formed on a peripheral surface is placed in a solvent capable of dissolving the coating film for a predetermined length. After the coating removal step of immersing only in the axial direction and reciprocating with a predetermined stroke, after the coating removal step, the length of the end portion immersed in the solvent in the coating removal step is longer than the length of the end. And a finishing step of dipping the end of the drum in the solvent, thereby achieving the above object.

FIG. 1 is a sectional view showing an example of an embodiment of a method for removing a coating film on a drum end according to the present invention. The method of the present invention is carried out, for example, in order to remove a coating film at the end of the drum 10 in which a coating solution containing a photosensitive substance is applied by an immersion method and a coating film is formed on the entire outer peripheral surface. In the method of the present invention, a treatment tank 20 containing a solvent 21 capable of dissolving the coating film on the outer peripheral surface of the drum 10 is used.

The method of the present invention is performed as follows. For example, by a dipping method, the drum 10 having the coating film formed on the outer peripheral surface is held substantially vertically, the entire drum 10 is relatively lowered with respect to the processing tank 20, and the lower end of the drum 10 is coated with a solvent. Immerse in 21. In this case, the drum 10 immerses only a predetermined length L1 in the axial direction of the lower end portion where the coating film needs to be removed in the solvent 21. Then, in such a state, the lower end surface of the drum 10 is raised relatively to the processing tank 20 so as to withdraw from the solvent 21. Thus, the lower end of the drum 10 from which the coating film is to be removed is immersed in the solvent 21 and the solvent 21 is removed.
The drum 10 is reciprocated in the axial direction repeatedly to move up and down with a stroke L1 such that the drum 10 is withdrawn. By repeating such lifting and lowering several tens of times, the coating film immersed in the solvent 21 at the lower end of the drum 10 is dissolved in the solvent 21 and removed.

When such a coating film removing step is completed, a finishing step is performed, and the lower end of the drum 10 in the coating film removing step is coated with a solvent.
It is immersed longer (L2) than the length L1 immersed in 21. In such a state, the drum 10 is repeatedly moved back and forth in the axial direction by the stroke L2. This allows
The portion of the coating film adjacent to the lower end of the drum 10 from which the coating film has been removed is immersed in the solvent 21, and the coating film in this portion is slightly dissolved in the solvent, and the coating film portion is separated by another solvent. The thickness is substantially the same as that of the coating film portion, and there is no possibility that the coating film becomes thick.

(Effects of the Invention) According to the method of the present invention, the portion of the coating film adjacent to the portion where the coating film has been removed at the end of the drum has substantially the same thickness as the other coating film portion, and only that portion becomes thicker. Without fear,
Therefore, a good electrophotographic photosensitive drum can be manufactured.
