摘要:
A rotating type developing apparatus, having a plurality of developing devices which convey developer, which at least includes toner and carrier, to a developing roll while accommodating and circulating the developer; and a rotating body which holds and rotates the plurality of developing devices, in a rotating type developing apparatus in which the plurality of developing devices successively oppose a photosensitive drum due to the rotation of the rotating body so as to form a multicolor image, the apparatus having developer supplying equipment which supplies the developer to the developing devices; and collecting equipment which collects excess developer within the developing devices due to the rotation of the rotating body.
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.

An image forming apparatus includes: a body; a transport belt that includes a transport face, and that transports the sheet while supporting the sheet on a transport face; a developer-image forming portion that forms a developer image on the sheet transported by transport belt; and a fixing device that includes a contact portion disposed lower position than the transport face, and that fixes the developer image on the sheet by the contact portion.
摘要:
A plurality of process cartridges are installed and removed in a lateral direction of an image forming device main body. A conveying belt unit in the device main body includes a conveying belt that upwardly conveys a sheet on which an image is to be formed and a frame that supports an entraining roller at which the conveying belt is entrained. The image forming device includes a guide that guides the plurality of process cartridges to their installed positions in the device main body. The plurality of process cartridges correspond to respective toners of a plurality of colors. Each of the process cartridges includes a housing that supports a photosensitive drum which rotates in a predetermined direction. Each of the process cartridges also includes a handle having the same color as that of the frame of the conveying belt unit and which is formed integrally with the housing.
