Abstract:
A developing device includes a developer container, a developer carrier, and a stirring/conveying member. The developer container stores developer containing toner. The developer carrier carries on its surface the toner in the developer container. The stirring/conveying member includes a rotary shaft rotatably supported on the developer container and a stirring blade formed around the outer circumferential face of the rotary shaft and stirs and conveys the developer in the developer container. The stirring/conveying member to be used can be selected from a plurality of types of stirring/conveying members with rotary shafts with different shaft diameters.
Abstract:
A developing device includes a developing roller, a toner supply roller, a regulating blade, a casing, and a cleaning member. The developing roller supplies a toner to the image carrier in a region opposed to an image carrier. The toner supply roller is located opposed to the developing roller. The toner supply roller forms a magnetic brush made of a two-component developer including a magnetic carrier and a toner on an outer peripheral surface to supply a toner to the developing roller in a region opposed to the developing roller. The regulating blade is located opposed to the toner supply roller at a predetermined interval. The casing houses the developing roller, the toner supply roller, and the regulating blade. The cleaning member reciprocates along a longitudinal direction of the regulating blade so as to remove a toner accumulated on a top surface of the regulating blade.
Abstract:
The neutralization units 12a and 12b are arranged between the primary transfer positions and the cleaning units 11a and 11b, and, irradiate a region on the image supporting body 2a with first neutralization light 131, the regions spanning from a position facing the primary transfer position to a position facing the cleaning unit 11a. The neutralization units 12a and 12b irradiate a region on the image supporting body 2b with second neutralization light 132, the region spanning from a position facing the developing unit 16b to a position facing the primary transfer position. The neutralization units 12a and 12b include a first reflective part and a second reflective part provided at different positions on a side face of the light guiding body. The first reflective part forms the light 131 and the second reflective part forms the light 132 by reflecting the light from the neutralization light source.

Abstract:
A developing roller includes a roller main body disposed to face, without contact, an outer circumferential surface of an image carrier. A resin coat layer has been formed on an outer circumferential surface of the roller main body, the resin coat layer being made of a resin material having electric conductivity. A product of resistance component Rs [Ω] and electrostatic capacitance component Cs [F] in AC impedance Z of the roller main body is in a range from 2.79×10−7 to 6.77×10−5, the AC impedance Z being obtained when an AC voltage of a predetermined frequency f is applied.
