摘要:
An image forming device for printing images on sheets of material includes a photosensitive member for carrying a latent image thereon, a developing roller rotatably disposed adjacent to the photosensitive member for supplying a layer of toner to the photosensitive member through rotation, and a developing blade adjustably disposed adjacent to the developing roller for regulating the thickness of the toner layer supplied to the photosensitive member. A driving circuit controllably rotates the developing roller, and a controller controls the driving circuit. The controller generates signals to control the driving circuit to reverse the rotation of the developing roller under certain conditions.
摘要:
A toner cartridge employed in an electrophotographic printer and capable of attachment to or detachment from the electrophotographic printer. The toner cartridge includes a stirring member (4) which touches the inner wall of the cartridge (100) to reliably stir the toner contained in the cartridge (100). The stirring member (4) is rotatable and is interlocked with a gear (5) which is rotated by an external drive force.

A developing apparatus includes restriction member disposed midway of a route through which developer is delivered from a hopper to a supply roller. The restriction member restricts the amount of the developer to be supplied to the supply roller. The amount of developer supplied from the supply roller to a developing roller is limited by the provision of the restriction member. The developer on the surface of the developing roller is thinned or doctored by a developing blade and develops an electrostatic latent image on a carrier.
