1. A developing apparatus, comprising:
a first supplying portion that transports a developer that is stored in a developer vessel while churning so as to supply to a developer bearing member; a second supplying portion that transports a toner that is resupplied and the developer while churning so as to supply to the first supplying portion, a first transporting member that transports the developer in a first direction in a first transporting path and in a second direction opposite to the first direction in the first transporting path; a second transporting member that turns up and transports the developer that is transported in the first direction by the first transporting member in the second direction in a second transporting path that is formed in parallel with the first transporting path so as to supply to the developer bearing member, and turns up and transports the developer that is transported in the second direction by the first transporting member in the first direction in the second transporting path, the second transporting member being provided horizontally or approximately horizontally with respect to the first transporting member; a partitioning plate that partitions the first transporting path and the second transporting path, and a resupplying port that resupplies the toner in a downstream side of the second direction in the first transporting path, wherein the developer that is transported by the first supplying portion and churned with the toner and the developer that is supplied to the first supplying portion by the second supplying portion face and collide with each other, further comprising a first slit provided in the partitioning plate at a first position where the developer transported in the first direction by the first transporting member is turned up, a second slit provided in the partitioning plate at a second position where the developer transported in the second direction by the first transporting member is turned up; and a third slit provided in the partitioning plate at a third position where the developer transported in the first direction and the developer transported in the second direction collide with each other. |
