Process Unit

摘要

A process unit has an image carrying unit having an image carrying member configured to be rotatable about a first axis extending in a first direction, and a developing agent removing member, a developing unit having a developing agent carrying member configured to be rotatable about a second axis parallel to the first axis, and a waste developing agent collecting unit configured to collect the developing agent removed by the removing member from the image carrying member. The waste developing agent collecting unit is arranged on one side in the first direction with respect to the developing unit such that the waste developing agent collecting unit faces the developing unit, and the developing unit is connected to the waste developing agent collecting unit such that the developing unit being movable in a second direction which is perpendicular to the first direction with respect to the waste developing agent collecting unit.

1. A consumable unit configured to accommodate developing agent, the consumable unit comprising:
a developing agent reservoir configured to accommodate the developing agent; an agitator arranged in the developing agent reservoir and configured to rotate about a first rotational shaft extending in a first direction and to agitate the developing agent; and at least one supporting member disposed at an end portion of the consumable unit in the first direction and configured to support, at a position shifted from the developing agent reservoir in the first direction, a waste developing agent accommodating unit configured to accommodate waste developing agent, wherein the at least one supporting member is configured to support the waste developing agent accommodating unit such that the waste developing agent accommodating unit is movable, at the position shifted from the developing agent reservoir in the first direction, relative to the consumable unit in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction.
