摘要:
A process cartridge is detachably mountable to a main assembly of an electrophotographic image forming apparatus and which is transportable in a state of being mounted to the main assembly of the apparatus. The cartridge includes an electrophotographic photosensitive member, a developing roller for developing an electrostatic latent image formed on the member with a developer, a developer accommodating portion accommodating the developer and having a developer supply opening for permitting passage of the developer to supply the developer to the roller, a sealing member unsealably sealing the opening and a grip member, provided on the sealing member, for being gripped to unseal the opening when the sealing member is removed from the opening. The grip member is movable between a first position where the cartridge can move to a predetermined position in the main assembly to permit transportation of the cartridge when mounted to the main assembly, and a second position where the cartridge is prevented from moving to the predetermined position from the first position when the cartridge is dismounted from the predetermined position.

A developing device facing an image carrier and including a developer carrier, a developer flying control member, and a development-noise control member. The developing device develops an electrostatic image formed on the image carrier by causing the developer to fly from the developer carrier to the image carrier upon an application of an alternating-current bias to the developer carrier. Noise produced by the development-noise control member vibrated by an oscillating electric field of the alternating-current bias is smaller than a noise produced by the developer flying control member vibrated by the oscillating electric field.

A cleaning device for a vehicular lamp including a piston 3, which has a spray nozzle 5 and a nozzle cover 7 covering the spray nozzle, and a cylinder 2, which drives the piston into and out of an opening 91 formed in a vehicle body 9. The nozzle cover has a cylindrical shaft receiving portion 72 extending from the rear surface thereof and an engagement hole 73a provided at a position away from the shaft receiving portion. The distal end of the piston has an engagement shaft portion 82, which projects forward and fits with the shaft receiving portion of the nozzle cover, and an engagement tab 83, which engages with the engagement hole of the nozzle cover. The engagement shaft portion fits with the shaft receiving portion and the engagement tab engages with the engagement hole by moving the nozzle cover toward the distal end of the piston.

A vending machine which can match the personal preference of the prospective purchaser, enhance motivation to purchase and display information with a high advertising effect. A display drive unit drives a display in accordance with image data, character data and control signals from a control unit to output images, and an audio output unit performs audio outputting by driving loudspeakers in accordance with audio data and control signals from the control unit. An IC chip reader reads IC chip information stored in an IC chip and delivers it to the control unit. A modem receives data from outside in accordance with control signals from the control unit, and delivers them to the control unit. A storage device stores a plurality of sets of component data, and stores data received by the modem in accordance with control signals from the control unit or delivers to the control unit data it stores.
摘要:
A developing device for developing a latent image formed on an image bearing member by using developer, the developing device including: a developing frame; a developing roller for supplying developer to the latent image to develop the latent image; a developer layer regulating member which regulates a layer thickness of developer on a circumferential surface of the developing roller; and a first surface and a second surface which are provided in the developer layer regulating member along a longitudinal direction of the developer layer regulating member, for positioning the developer layer regulating member with respect to the developing frame, in which a first imaginary plane, which is obtained by extending the first surface imaginarily, and a second imaginary plane, which is obtained by extending the second surface imaginarily, intersect each other.

A check valve of a cleaning device of a vehicle lamp is provided with a cleaning liquid influx portion, a valve disposing portion, and a cleaning liquid efflux portion which are arranged in series in a sliding direction of the piston. A valve body is disposed in the valve disposing portion. The valve body opens and closes a space between the cleaning liquid influx portion and the cleaning liquid efflux portion, when at least a portion of the valve body moves in a direction substantially perpendicular to a sliding direction of a piston.
