A favorable appearance can be achieved using a simple configuration, even when the configuration is provided with a back shell that moves up and down relative to a back frame. In a vehicle seat 10, the back of a seated person is adapted to be supported by a movable back shell 42 that is supported so as to be capable of moving in an up-down direction relative to a back frame 30. A non-movable back shell 46 that is attached so as to be incapable of displacement relative to the back frame 30 is disposed on a back face side of the movable back shell 42, and the back frame 30 is covered by the non-movable back shell 46.

A developing apparatus includes a developing container for containing a developer therein. A developing carrying member, provided in an opening portion of the developing container, for developing an electrostatic image on an image bearing member, the developer carrying member having a rubber layer and a surface layer on the rubber layer. A seal member is provided in the opening portion for preventing leakage of the developer from an end portion of the opening portion. The seal member provided in the opening portion for preventing leakage of the developer from an end portion of the opening portion, wherein the seal member is in contact with the surface layer except for an end edge thereof.
摘要:
In a developing apparatus having the configuration of charging toner on the developing roller with the toner charging roller, toner charging roller contacts to the developing roller. Since toner adheres onto the toner charging roller by applying the voltage higher than a starting voltage in the developing apparatus, electrifying property of the toner charging roller drops. This causes low image quality since stable charges cannot be given to the toner on the developing roller. Therefore, they are provided, a developing apparatus and an image forming apparatus that can always offer good image quality by preventing adhesion of a developing material to a developer-charging member and always giving stable charges to a developer bearing body and developer.

摘要:
An image forming apparatus includes an image bearing member; a developing device including a carrying member for carrying a developer and for developing an electrostatic image formed on the image bearing member with a developer, a developer supplying means, contacted to the carrying member, for supplying the developer to the carrying member, and developer regulating means for regulating an amount of the developer carried on the carrying member; supply means for supplying the developer to the developing device; control means for controling supply of the developer to the developing device from the supply means, wherein the developing device further includes developer stirring means for stirring the developer supplied from the supply means and for supplying the developer to the supplying means, wherein the stirring means has a lower end disposed at a position which is vertically above an upper end of the supplying means and which is vertically above a contact portion between the carrying member and the developer regulating means, and the control means controls the supply means such that level of surface of the developer adjacent the developer stirring means is maintained vertically above a lower end of the developer stirring means and vertically below a wall of an upper surface of the developing device.
摘要:
A developing apparatus in which a developer is prevented from attaching to a developer electrifying member. The developing apparatus has a developer carrying body, a regulating member, and a developer carrying member, wherein during a period when developing action is not conducted by the developer carrying body and residual developer is being cleaned, there is a first period during which a first electric field is formed in a direction in which the developer normally charged moves from the developer carrying body to the developer charging member and after the first period there is a second period during which a second electric field is formed in a direction in which the developer normally charged moves from the developer charging member to the developer carrying body.
