In a developing device for supplying developer to latent images formed on an image support, a container in which the developer is contained has a sloping bottom. The container has an opening in its top so as to release the developer particles therethrough. The container houses a developer carrier, which is arranged above the sloping bottom of the container with one end located on the lower side of the sloping bottom of the container immersed in the developer particles, and with its other end located on the higher side of the sloping bottom thereof. The developer carrier has a plurality of linear electrodes arranged thereon, starting from one end to the other end, and has an electric field generator connected to these linear electrodes to successively apply voltages to these electrodes so as to generate an electric field which advances according to a lapse of time, whereby the developer particles are carried along the developer carrier, from one end to the other. That part of the developer particles which does not contribute to the developing of the image is also carried from near the opening to the other end, where it slides down by its own weight on the sloping bottom of the container to return to and near the one end again.

A developing apparatus has a toner carrier having a horizontal portion disposed near the surface of a photoconductive member on which an electrostatic latent image is formed, and an inclined portion having one end portion embedded in a toner. The horizontal and inclined portions having strip electrodes thereon. A voltage circuit applies to the strip electrodes potentials, which change in a stepwise manner as a time function, so as to form electric fields shifting from the inclined portion to the horizontal portion. An opposed electrode is disposed to oppose the inclined portion. A voltage, which is half the maximum value of the potentials applied to the strip electrodes of the toner carrier, is applied to the opposed electrode.

An electrostatic copying apparatus comprises a charging/cleaning device which has both a charging function for charging a photosensitive layer and a cleaning function for removing a developer remaining on the photosensitive layer. The charging/cleaning device includes a first common rotatable roller having an electrical conductive contactor on the outer periphery thereof, a voltage applying mechanism for applying a voltage between furs of the contactor and a photosensitive drum. The furs applied with the voltage charge the photosensitive layer and electrostatically attract the developer remaining on the photosensitive layer to clean thereof. The charging/cleaning device further includes a recovering mechanism for recovering the developer attracted to the furs therefrom.

A developing device effects desirable development when the amount of charging of toner, q (C/g), the amount of toner deposited on the surface of a developing roller per unit area, m (g/cm.sup.2), the speed of movement of the surface of the developing roller, v (cm/sec), the available length of the developing roller, l (cm), and the magnitude of electric resistance between the surface of the developing roller and a power source for developing bias, R (.OMEGA.), are adjusted so as to satisfy the formula, .vertline.q.vertline.m.ltoreq.100/vlR. The developing device produces a developed image desirable in quality and free from background fogging when the magnitude of a developing electric current, I (A), is adjusted so as to satisfy the formula, R.ltoreq.200/I. Further, when a charging device, an electrostatic latent image forming device, a transfer device, a cleaning device, a discharge device, a charging and cleaning device, an electrostatic latent image forming and cleaning device, a developing and cleaning device, or a discharging and cleaning device is provided with an elastic electroconductive roller composed of an elastic roller base and a flexible conductor layer, the device is allowed to decrease size and lower price, curb the decline of capacity due to protracted use, and preclude the occurrence of dispersion of characteristic, efficiency, or performance.

A developing apparatus is disclosed that employs one-component non-magnetic toner. The apparatus includes a movable developing agent carrier that has a surface polished to a first finish, roughened to a second finish, and then metal plated. The agent carried carries a one-component developing agent composed of non-magnetic toner and supplies the developing agent to an electrostatic latent image. An elastic coating member is disposed to press on the surface of the movable developing agent carrier so that the free end thereof is directed opposite to the moving direction of the movable developing agent carrier, and a toner stirring member disposed in a toner container contiguously to or in sliding contact with the movable developing agent carrier. The apparatus provides a uniform toner layer over a long period of time and supplies stable and high quality images.

A developing apparatus comprises a developing roll for carrying a nonmagnetic toner thereon, and an elastic blade pressed against the outer circumferential surface of the developing roll to apply the toner thereto. The toner is applied to the surface of the developing roll by the elastic blade to form a thin layer of the toner on the surface of the developing roll. The thin layer is opposed to a photosensitive body to deposit the toner on a latent image on the photosensitive body. The developing roll has a surface which is opposite to the photosensitive body and the whole of which is roughened.
