A disassembling method is disclosed for a process cartridge detachably mountable to a main assembly of an electrophotographic image forming apparatus. The process cartridge includes covering members connected to a drum supporting frame and a developer container at ends of the drum supporting frame and the developer accommodating container with respect to a longitudinal direction of the electrophotographic photosensitive drum. The disassembling method includes a step of cutting the cover member adjacent to a connecting portion between the cover member and the drum supporting frame and a connecting portion between the cover member and the developer accommodating container along an outer wall of the covering member.

This invention relates to developing agent supply container for supplying a developing agent to a developing agent storage container for storing the developing agent used for developing a latent image formed on an electrophotographic photosensitive body. The container includes a developing agent storage portion, and an inhibition device for inhibiting supply of the developing agent stored in the developing agent storage portion to the developing agent storage container when the developing agent supply container is removed from a predetermined position, and permitting supply of the developing agent stored in the developing agent storage portion to the developing agent storage container when the developing agent supply container is mounted at the predetermined position with respect to the developing agent storage container so as to supply the developing agent to the developing agent storage container.
摘要:
An image forming apparatus is provided for forming an image on a recording medium. The apparatus has a main body on which a process cartridge, which includes a frame, an image bearing member, a toner carrying member, and an attachment member for attaching the toner carrying member to the frame, is removably mountable. The apparatus also has a supporting device for supporting the process cartridge at the attachment member when the process cartridge is mounted in the apparatus and a feeding device for feeding the recording medium.

A process cartridge mountable within an image forming apparatus, the process cartridge including (a) a frame, (b) an image bearing member provided in the frame, and (c) a blade member including an elastic blade, and a support member for supporting the elastic blade and having a supporting portion for supporting the elastic blade, a protruded portion protruding from the supporting portion in a longitudinal direction, and a hole formed in the protruded portion.
摘要:
The present invention is characterized by an image bearing member, a toner carrying member for directing toner to the image bearing member and a magnet disposed within the toner carrying member, and in that the image bearing member and the magnet are positioned by a common positioning member. With above construction, it is possible to provide a process cartridge and an image forming system, which can remarkably the accuracy of attachment positions of an image bearing member and a magnet, thus remarkably enhancing the image quality.
摘要:
An image forming system includes a process cartridge having an image bearing member, processing structure acting on the image bearing member, a toner container containing toner used in a developing operation, and a gripper used when the process cartridge is mounted within the image forming system. The gripper also serves as an aiding member for removing a seal sealingly closing an opening of the toner container. With the foregoing construction, it is possible to provide a process cartridge and an image forming system capable of removably mounting a process cartridge therein, which can prevent an operator from forgetting to remove a seal prior to using a new process cartridge.
摘要:
A sealing member for preventing toner from leaking, having a first lip portion which abuts against a frame member, a second lip portion which abuts against the longitudinal end portion of a blade member, and a third lip portion which abuts against a rotary member. The sealing members may be employed in a process cartridge or an image forming apparatus.
