摘要:
A developing device includes a developing container, a rotatable developing member to carry and feed the developer to a developing position, a magnet provided non rotatably and stationarily inside the rotatable developing member and provided with a regulating pole, and a regulating portion to regulate an amount of the developer carried on the rotatable developing member by a magnetic force of the regulating pole. With respect to a rotational direction of the rotatable developing member, a local minimum position, where a magnetic flux density of the regulating pole in a normal direction is a local minimum value, is downstream of a first local maximum position where the magnetic flux density of the regulating pole in the normal direction is a first local maximum value, and is upstream of a second local maximum position where the magnetic flux density of the regulating pole is a second local maximum value.

In some examples, a developing device includes a developing container including an opening and to store a developer, a developing sleeve installed in the developing container and partially exposed to an outside of the developing container through the opening, a regulation member upstream of the opening in a rotation direction of the developing sleeve and to regulate an amount of the developer adhered to the developing sleeve and supplied to the opening, and a magnetic member inside the developing sleeve. The magnetic member includes a main pole facing the opening, a regulation pole facing the regulation member, and a catch pole upstream of the regulation pole in the rotation direction of the developing sleeve. The magnetic member is to cause adhesion of the developer in the developing container to the developing sleeve. At least one of lengths of the catch pole or the regulation pole and diameters of both end portions of the catch pole or the regulation pole are less than a length and a diameter, respectively, of the main pole.

A developing device includes a developing container, a developing roller, a supplying roller, a first magnet including a first magnetic pole, a second magnet including second to fourth magnetic poles, and a regulating member. A maximum magnetic flux density of the second magnetic pole is larger in absolute value than a maximum magnetic flux density of the third magnetic pole in a normal direction to the supplying roller, and a maximum magnetic flux density of the third magnetic pole is larger in absolute value than a maximum magnetic flux density of the fourth magnetic pole in the normal direction. With respect to a rotational direction of the supplying roller, an angle between maximum magnetic flux density positions of the second and third magnetic poles is smaller than an angle between maximum magnetic flux density positions of the third and fourth magnetic poles by 10 degrees or more.

A developing device includes a development roller, a layer-thickness limiting member, and a first screw. The development roller includes a fixed magnet and a sleeve. The first screw supplies developer to the development roller while conveying the developer in a first conveyance direction. The sleeve includes a plurality of recesses. Each of the recesses has an elongated shape, and a downstream end and an upstream end in the first conveyance direction. The downstream end is located farther downstream in a rotational direction of the sleeve than the upstream end. When the developer in each of the recesses passes the layer-thickness limiting member, the developer moves upstream in the first conveyance direction.

A multipolar magnet is arranged inside a developer bearing member. A partitioning wall is arranged such that an apex position thereof is located between the developer bearing member and a first conveying member, and is extended up to a position which is located below an upper end position of a zero-gauss zone. A plurality of concaved portions is formed on the surface of the developer bearing member at an interval. Each of the plurality of concaved portions has such an opening shape that a maximum diameter of an inscribed circle is equal to or greater than a diameter of an average grain size of a carrier, and is formed such that the carrier with the average grain size is able to enter each of the concaved portions by a depth that is equal to or greater than a radius thereof.

A developer unit for a dual component development electrophotographic image forming device includes a housing having a reservoir for storing a developer mix that includes toner and magnetic carrier beads. An axial sealing rib projects from an inner side of the housing toward the outer surface of a sleeve of a magnetic roll. The axial sealing rib extends along an axial length of the sleeve. A distal end of the axial sealing rib is positioned in close proximity to and spaced from the outer surface of the sleeve. The axial sealing rib is positioned to impede the flow of developer mix in the reservoir in a direction counter to an operative rotational direction of the sleeve.
