A feed containing 100 parts by weight of reactants consisting of 88 to 98% by weight of a styrene-based monomer or its mixture with other comonomers and 2 to 12% by weight of high-viscosity rubber with a viscosity of 400 to 2,000 centipoises in a 5% by weight styrene solution at 25.degree. C., 0.01 to 0.2 part by weight of an organic peroxide, and 0 to 30 parts by weight of an inert organic solvent is supplied continuously to the first complete mixing type reactor where it is polymerized under the condition prevailing before the rubber phase inversion, the initial reaction mixture is withdrawn continuously and supplied to the second complete mixing type reactor where the rubber is transformed into particles with the conversion of the monomers in the reactants held at 40% by weight or less, and the conversion is raised in the following reactor to yield impact-resistant rubber-modified styrene resins containing rubber particles with a weight average particle diameter of 1.5 to 4 .mu.m.

A powder container, storing powder used for an image forming apparatus, includes a container body, an opening, and a shutter. The opening discharges or introduces the powder, and the shutter opens and closes the opening. The shutter includes a first engaging portion and a second engaging portion. The first engaging portion engages a shutter switch, provided to an apparatus body of the image forming apparatus, in a first trajectory. The second engaging portion engages the shutter switch in a second trajectory different from the first trajectory. The shutter approaches and contacts the shutter switch in the first trajectory or the second trajectory to open and close the opening.

An image forming apparatus includes a latent image bearer, a charging roller, a first cleaner, a second cleaner, and a rotation controller. The latent image bearer bears a latent image on a surface thereof. The charging roller charges the latent image bearer. The first cleaner cleans the surface of the latent image bearer. The second cleaner cleans a surface of the charging roller. The rotation controller controls the latent image bearer to execute a set of backward rotation and first forward rotation at least once during a non-image formation time period, and either temporarily stop and start second forward rotation or continuously execute the second forward rotation by a rotation distance corresponding to at least one rotation of the charging roller.

An image forming apparatus includes a housing including an opening to house a plurality of latent image bearing members for bearing latent images and latent image forming devices for forming the latent images, and an openably and closable holder to hold the latent image forming devices. The holder with one end thereof pivotally supported by the housing moves the latent image forming devices from an engaged position at which the latent image forming devices form the latent images to a retracted position at which the latent image forming devices are separated from the latent image bearing members as the holder moves to an open position at which the opening of the housing is opened. As the holder is opened, at least one of the latent image forming devices, which is closest to a fulcrum of the holder, is positioned at an end of the housing pivotally supporting the holder.

A multicolor image forming apparatus includes: a photosensitive belt unit comprising; a driving roller; a driven roller; a photosensitive belt having a joint, and a charger charging a surface of the photosensitive belt; an exposure device forming an electrostatic latent image, based on image information of each color, on the photosensitive belt; a plurality of developing devices storing different color developers, and an intermediate transfer unit performing a first transfer by sequentially superimposing each color developer image formed on the photosensitive belt. The photosensitive belt is suspended around the driving roller and the driven roller and is rotated and driven by the driving roller. Each developing device contacts and retracts from the photosensitive belt so as to develop the electrostatic latent image into a visible image using each color developer. At least one developing device can retract from the photosensitive belt at a region other than an image region.

A metal holder has a V-shape in cross-section formed by two arm sections. PET sheets are attached to mutually opposed surfaces of respective arm sections, and part of each PET sheet extends toward the electrically-conductive roller beyond the arm section. Flocked sheets are attached to the surfaces of the respective PET sheets opposite the electrically-conductive roller, and contact the electrically-conductive roller.
