摘要： A control device permits execution of a print process on condition that an object sensor detects an object at a detection position. A switch mechanism, in accordance with a release operation, releases an interlock between a first displacement member and a closing operation of a cover portion. In a state where a second displacement member is located at an actuation position, a detected portion is located at the detection position. When the second displacement member is located at a retreat position, a first contact portion is not in contact with the cover portion. When the cover portion is closed, the cover portion displaces the second displacement member from a standard position to an actuation position. When the first displacement member is displaced from a first relay position to a second relay position, the first displacement member displaces the second displacement member from the standard position to the retreat position.

摘要： A toner receiving device includes a toner receiving port, a seal member, an opening/closing member, and an elastic member. The toner receiving port receives toner supplied from a toner case. The seal member is elastic and provided on a peripheral edge of the toner receiving port. The opening/closing member closes and opens the toner receiving port by moving between a closing position to close the toner receiving port while contacting the seal member and an opening position to open the toner receiving port. The opening/closing member moves from the closing position to the opening position when attaching the toner case to a predetermined attachment position. The elastic member applies to the opening/closing member an elastic biasing force that is obliquely downward in a closing direction in which the opening/closing member moves from the opening position to the closing position.

摘要： A development device includes a developer introduction port, a developer conveyance portion, a first conveyance ability suppressing portion, and a connecting conveyance portion. The conveyance ability suppressing portion is disposed on a downstream side of the developer introduction port in a first direction in which the developer is conveyed in order to partially suppress a developer conveyance ability of the developer conveyance portion such that a developer accumulation portion is formed in a position opposing the developer introduction port. A first direction downstream side of the first conveyance ability suppressing portion opposes a first connecting passage in a third direction that intersects the first direction. The connecting conveyance portion is joined to the first direction downstream side of the conveyance ability suppressing portion and opposes the first connecting passage in the third direction in order to pass the developer from a first conveyance passage to a second conveyance passage.
