A magnetic toner is constituted by at least a binder resin and a magnetic iron oxide. The magnetic iron oxide is characterized by having an Fe(II) content of 18.5-24.1 wt. %, and shows a BET specific surface area of S (m.sup.2 /g) and an X-ray diffraction pattern giving a half-value width W (deg.) of a diffraction peak corresponding to 311 plane of the magnetic iron oxide in spinel structure, the values S and W satisfying: 4.5.times.10.sup.-3 S+0.130.ltoreq.W.ltoreq.4.5.times.10.sup.-3 S+0.160, and 4.5.ltoreq.S.ltoreq.11.0. Alternatively, the magnetic iron oxide is characterized by having a number-average particle size D satisfying a relationship with W of: -0.08D+0.180.ltoreq.W.ltoreq.-0.08D+0.212, and 0.10.ltoreq.D.ltoreq.0.45. The relationship between W and S or D indicates a good crystallinity of the magnetic iron oxide which provides the magnetic toner with a stable performance for a long period of time. The magnetic iron oxide can be obtained through a heating treatment at a temperature of 130.degree.-360.degree. C. within a gaseous mixture of hydrogen and nitrogen containing 50 vol. % or less of hydrogen or at a temperature of 150.degree. -450.degree. C. in an inert gas.

A toner for developing an electrostatic image is formed of toner particles; wherein each toner particle includes (i) 100 wt. parts of a binder resin having a glass transition point (Tg) of 50-70° C., (ii) 0.2-20 wt. parts of solid wax, and (iii) colorant particles or magnetic powder, (iv) lubricant particles carrying a liquid lubricant, so that the toner particle retains at its surface the liquid lubricant gradually released from the particles (iv). The toner may be further blended with an organically treated inorganic fine powder to provide a developer. The toner or developer retains good lubricity and releasability so that it is suitable to be used in an image forming method including means contacting a latent image-bearing means, such as a contact charging means, a contact transfer means or a contact cleaning means.

摘要:
The present invention provides a developer which is comprised of the magnetic toner having the specific binder resin component and low-molecular weight wax and the additives of the fine silica powder, metal oxide powder and fluorine-containing fine resin powder which are used in combination in given amounts. Hence, it is possible to prevent the melt-adhesion of toner to the surfaces of the contact charging member and contact transfer member, to cause no faulty images and to obtain images with the enjoyment of superior low-temperature fixing performance and anti-offset properties, even when copies are taken on a large number of sheets using the image forming method having contact charging and contact transfer systems.

摘要:
A lens driving device is provided to reduce a number of required high-accuracy components and also eliminate the unevenness of maximum displacement of a lens holder with respect to a base. An outer edge of a lower spring plate is clamped by a lower casing served as a base and a lower spacer. A first protrusion is formed on a sidewall of the lens holder and protruding outward therefrom. A second protrusion protruding toward the lens holder is formed on an inner circumference of the lower spacer and extends to a position above and separating from the first protrusion by a distance S. The first protrusion props against the second protrusion when the lens holder is moved toward an imaged-object side and reaching a displacement of the distance S.
