    摘要: A developing cartridge includes a casing, a developer-carrying member, a supply member, a developing electrode, a supply electrode, and an insulating member. The casing is configured to accommodate therein developer. The developer-carrying member is configured to rotate about a rotational axis and carry the developer thereon. The supply member is configured to supply the developer to the developer-carrying member. The developing electrode is configured to be electrically connected to the developer-carrying member. The supply electrode is configured to be electrically connected to the supply member. The insulating member insulates the developing electrode and the supply electrode with each other. The developing electrode, the insulating member, and the supply electrode are overlapped in this order in an axial direction of the rotational axis.

    摘要: An engaging portion 30 is provided which is engageable with a portion-to-be-engaged 11b a displaceable integrally with a developer receiving portion 11 with a mounting operation of a developer supply container 1 to displace 11 in an upward direction U to bring a receiving opening into communication with a discharge opening. An engaging portion 30 includes a first engagement surface 31a extending in the upward direction U as going toward a developer accommodating portion of the developer supply container 1, and a second engagement surface 32a provided at a position closer to the developer accommodating portion than the first engagement surface 31a. When the receiving opening in communication with a shutter opening, a height of an end of the first engagement surface 31a close to the developer accommodating portion is higher than the second engagement surface 32a.

    摘要: A developer supply container is detachably mountable to a developer receiving apparatus including a developer receiving portion provided with a receiving opening for receiving a developer, and a portion-to-be-engaged 11b integrally displaceable with the developer receiving portion. The developer supply container includes a discharging portion provided with a shutter opening for discharging the developer accommodated in the developer accommodating portion. An operation portion 21 displaces the developer receiving portion to bring the receiving opening into communication with the shutter opening by engagement between the engaging portion 21d and the portion-to-be-engaged 11b by a predetermined operation executed after the developer supply container is mounted to a predetermined position of the developer receiving apparatus.

    摘要: A unit casing (1) is mounted in a casing (120) included in an image forming apparatus (100). The unit casing (1) includes a main body (2) and a positioning section (3). The positioning section (3) positions the main body (2) relative to the casing (120). The main body (2) includes a first frame segment (21) and a second frame segment (22) located opposite to the first frame segment (21). The positioning section (3) includes a positioning frame segment (31) extending in parallel to the first frame segment (21) and at least one penetrating member (32) extending from the positioning frame segment (31) and penetrating through the first and second frame segments (21) and (22). The at least one penetrating member (32) has a tip end held by the casing (120).
