<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a developing device where unstirred toner is effectively diffused and efficiently stirred. <P>SOLUTION: The developing device develops an electrostatic latent image on a photoreceptor drum 2 by conveying a developer on developing rollers 10, 11 and 12 to a developing area by magnetic force. It has a block 20 provided at a spot where the density of the developer is low on a developer conveying path, and changing the conveying direction of the developer by abutting on the developer which is being conveyed, thereby making toner in the developer get into the developer. Therefore, the unstirred toner is effectively diffused and efficiently stirred. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT |
