    摘要: A developer cartridge provided in an image-forming device has a developer side casing that includes a toner-accommodating chamber and a developing chamber; and a plate wall disposed in the developing chamber for partitioning a thickness-regulating blade from the toner-accommodating chamber. When a thickness-regulating blade scrapes excess charged toner off the developing roller, the plate wall prevents this charged toner from returning to the toner-accommodating chamber. A flexible wiper for cleaning toner detection windows is attached to an agitator for stirring toner in the toner-accommodating chamber via a fixing member. The fixing member includes a support plate and a gripping plate disposed opposite each other with a slit formed therebetween. The wiper is inserted into the slit and is fixed to the fixing member when a boss protruding from a restricting plate becomes inserted into a through-hole formed in the wiper.

    摘要: A toner cartridge is described. The toner cartridge may include: a first frame storing a developing agent and having a first opening for passing the developing agent therethrough; a second frame relatively movable with respect to the first frame in a direction orthogonal to a direction of passage of the developing agent through the first opening, and opening/closing the first opening; and a seal member provided on either one of the first frame and the second frame for coming into contact with the other frame to prevent leakage of the developing agent from the first opening. A first edge of the seal member and an edge of the other frame, coming into contact with each other when the second frame opens/closes the first opening, intersect with each other as viewed from the direction of passage.

    摘要: A developer cartridge is configured to be detachably mounted in a main body of an image forming apparatus. A drive member is configured to be driven by the driving force and to move in a moving direction when the developer cartridge is mounted in the apparatus main body. A moving portion is provided on the drive member and is configured to move together with the drive member in the moving direction. An interfering portion is disposed downstream of a predetermined detection position with respect to the moving direction, thereby interfering with the moving portion and preventing the moving portion from passing the predetermined detection position a second time. A detecting portion detects passage of the moving portion at the predetermined detection position. An information determining portion determines information on the developer cartridge based on detection results of the detecting portion.

    摘要: A key switch wherein a switching action is effected by movements of a keytop movably connected to a holder via a scissors-type support linkage which consists of first and second links connected pivotally about a common primary pivot shaft. The keytop, holder and first and second links include at least one special secondary pivot shaft each carried by a special support portion, and at least one special bearing portion each engaging the corresponding special secondary pivot shaft. The special support portion and/or the corresponding special bearing portion has/have an elastic portion which elastically yields to allow engagement of the special pivot shaft and the special bearing portion during assembling of the keytop, support linkage and holder.
