Abstract:
A developing device includes a rotatable developing member, a developing container, a first communication opening, a second communication opening, a first feeding screw including a first rotation shaft, first and second blade portions, a second feeding screw including a second rotation shaft, third and fourth blade portions, a developer discharge opening provided upstream of an upstream end of the second communication opening in a first direction, and a third communication opening provided upstream of the upstream end of the second communication opening in the first direction. In a second direction opposite to the first direction, the third communication opening overlaps with the second blade portion. In the first direction, the third communication opening overlaps with the fourth blade portion. In the first direction, a downstream end of the third communication opening is positioned downstream of a downstream end of the developer discharge opening.
