A conveying member is rotatably disposed in the internal space and in rotational contact with an inner surface of the container for delivering the developing agent upward. The developing agent container including a first wall portion for receiving thereon the developing agent passed through the opening. The first wall portion extends from the lower edge in a downstream direction with respect to a rotational direction of the conveying member toward a position close to a bottommost portion of the toner supply roller. The container also includes a second wall portion extending from the upper edge in an upstream direction with respect to the rotational direction. The conveying member is in simultaneous sliding contact with both the first wall portion and the second wall portion. |
