DEVELOPER CONTAINER FOR SMOOTHLY DISCHARGING DEVELOPER

摘要

PURPOSE: A developer container is provided to restrain a developer from being blocked even when the developer has a large bulk density near a discharging opening, to thereby smoothly discharge the developer. CONSTITUTION: A developer container is rotated around a rotation axis to transfer and discharge a developer. The developer container includes a container body and a developer transfer restraining unit(5). The container body carries a developer and includes a discharging opening(1c) for discharging the developer. The developer transfer restraining unit is disposed inside the discharging opening in close proximity to the discharging opening. The developer transfer restraining unit includes the first and second wall members. The first wall member takes out the developer contained in the container body. The second wall member restrains the developer taken out by the first wall member from being moved while partially moves the developer.
