    摘要: A developer container for accommodating a developer used for developing an electrostatic latent image formed on an electrophotographic photosensitive member by a developing member for developing the electrostatic latent image includes, a first light-transmitting window for guiding detection light emitted from a light emitting member provided in a main body of an image forming apparatus into the developer container, a second light-transmitting window for guiding the detection light entering from the first light-transmitting window and passing through the developer container to a photosensing member provided in the main body of the image forming apparatus, in order to detect the remaining amount of the developer accommodated within the developer container when the developer container is mounted in the main body of the image forming apparatus, and a rotatable feeding member including a stirring blade for feeding the developer within the developer container toward the developing member when rotating, and for removing particles of the developer adhering to the first light-transmitting window and the second light-transmitting window by contacting the first light-transmitting window and second light-transmitting window. At least one of the respective inner surfaces of the light-transmitting window and the second light-transmitting window facing the inside of the developer container has an inner inclined portion having a circular convex portion, convex along a longitudinal direction of the rotating feeding member.

    摘要: A process cartridge detachably mountable to a main assembly of an electrophotographic image forming apparatus includes a positioning portion for positioning the process cartridge when mounted to a mounting position of the main assembly. The positioning portion is engageable with a positioning member provided in the main assembly of the apparatus, and is projected from the cartridge coaxially with and at one longitudinal end side of a electrophotographic photosensitive drum. A drum driving force receiving member receives driving force for rotating the drum from the main assembly when the process cartridge is mounted, the drum driving force receiving member being juxtaposed with the positioning member coaxially with the drum and projected outwardly beyond the positioning member. A transporting member driving force receiving member receives driving force for rotating a toner transporting member from the main assembly when the process cartridge is mounted, wherein the transporting member driving force receiving member is disposed at the same side as the drum driving force receiving member disposed in a longitudinal direction of the drum.

    摘要: A process cartridge detachably mountable to a main assembly of an image forming apparatus includes a cartridge frame, an electrophotographic photosensitive member, a processor actable on the electrophotographic photosensitive member, and a cartridge shutter capable of taking a closing position for covering an exposed portion of the electrophotographic photosensitive member exposed from the cartridge frame and an open position for exposing a part of the electrophotographic photosensitive member. The cartridge shutter has a first portion and a second portion which are swingable relative to each other, with the first portion being disposed downstream of the second portion with respect to a movement direction of the shutter toward the open position. The cartridge shutter takes a position above the cartridge frame when the process cartridge is mounted to a mounting position of the main assembly of the apparatus and the shutter takes the open position.
