摘要:
A developer container (32) removably installable in an apparatus body (100) of an image forming apparatus (1000) includes a container body (33) to contain developer, a cap (34) connectable to the container body and including a supply opening (W), and flange (300) projecting beyond an outer circumferential surface of the cap (34) in a radial direction extending from a center of a cross section of the container body (33). The flange (300)is formed along a circumference of the container body (33) and provided between the container body (33) and the cap (34).

摘要:
Provided is a substrate in which a terminal that comes in contact with a body side terminal installed in an image forming apparatus to communicate information and a hole engaged with a protruding section installed in the image forming apparatus body are formed. An earth terminal engaged with a body side earth terminal formed in a protruding section of the image forming apparatus body is formed in the hole formed in the substrate.
摘要:
A development device (3) includes a development casing (301), a developer bearer (302), a first developer conveyance member (304) to supply developer to the developer bearer (302), a second developer conveyance member (305) to transport developer axially, and a partition (306) dividing separating a supply channel (340) from a collecting channel (350). The supply channel (340) includes a conveyance area (341) and a buffer area (342) disposed adjacent to the conveyance area (341) in a direction perpendicular to an axial direction to temporarily retain developer and midway in the developer conveyance direction inside the supply channel (340), and an upstream end face (342f) defining an upstream end of the buffer area (342) is inclined relative to the axial direction to draw away from the conveyance area (341) downstream in the developer conveyance direction.
