摘要:
The image forming apparatus is provided with: an image carrier; an exposure member that exposes the image carrier and forms an electrostatic latent image on the image carrier; a developing member that develops the electrostatic latent image formed on the image carrier; and a contact-retracting unit that rotates the developing member taking a predetermined position as the rotational center, and brings the developing member in contact with or proximity to the image carrier or retracts the developing member from the image carrier.

A developing device includes: a developing roll; a bearing member that supports the developing roll rotatably, the bearing member including plural outer side surfaces, and distances from a center of a rotation axis of the developing roll to the outer side surfaces being different; and a supporting member that supports the bearing member in a positioning state where one of the plural outer side surfaces is in contact with a reference surface, the outer side surface in contact with the reference surface being changeable.

A developing device includes two developer-transporting members, a container, and four gap retainers. The container contains a developer and rotatably supports rotation shafts of the developer-transporting members using side walls located on both end portions. The gap retainers are supported at end portions of the developer-transporting members and are brought into contact with a subjected-to-development member or a supporter to maintain a gap between the subjected-to-development member and each developer-transporting member. A force with which the two developer-transporting members are pressed toward the subjected-to-development member is applied to the container and all the gap retainers are brought into contact with the subjected-to-development member or the supporter, while axes of rotation of the two developer-transporting members are allowed to become non-parallel with an axis of rotation of the subjected-to-development member.

摘要:
A developing device includes a developer transport body that transports developer to develop an electrostatic latent image on an image carrier, a housing that holds the developer transport body and defines an exposed portion and an unexposed portion, the housing including a storage portion storing the developer, and a layer-thickness regulation member that regulates a layer thickness of the developer transported to the exposed portion and includes one side close to a surface of the developer transport body, a first portion, and a second portion. The housing includes first faces that define both ends of the storage portion in the rotation axis direction of the developer transport body, a second face, and a third face. The developing device further includes a closing member that closes a gap between the layer-thickness regulation member and the second and third faces, and a magnet provided between the second and third faces.
