[0044] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: when the motor works, the positive electrode pin 1113 and the negative electrode pin 1114 are electrified, the first conductive part 211 and the second conductive part 212 conduct electricity to generate an electrostatic field, the first conductive part 211 carries positive charge, and the second conductive part 212 carries negative charge. According to Coulomb's law, the tiny particles with negative charge are adsorbed to the first conductive part 211, and the tiny particles with positive charge are adsorbed to the second conductive part 212. When the motor stops working, the positive electrode pin 1113 and the negative electrode pin 1114 are de-energized, the electrostatic field disappears, the adsorbed tiny particles lose the electric field force and may fall off under the influence of gravity, but at this time, the tiny particles are firmly adhered by the first dust sticking part 221 and the second dust sticking part 222, thereby preventing the tiny particles from falling onto the BG to cause the POG imaging problem.
