A developing cartridge includes a developing portion to supply toner, a toner storing portion to store the toner, a partition wall formed between the developing portion and the toner storing portion and having a toner supply section, and a storing-portion agitating member rotatably disposed in the toner storing portion to intermittently rotate to move the toner in the toner storing portion while the developing portion supplies the toner.

Developing cartridge, developing apparatus and image forming apparatus having the same

A developing cartridge includes: a photosensitive unit; a developing unit coupled to the photosensitive unit to be movable between a release position and a developing position; an elastic member to provide an elastic force in a direction to maintain the developing unit at the developing position; a movable member including a gear portion, the movable member and capable of moving to a first position to move the developing unit to the release position and second position to move the developing unit to the developing position; and a switching member connected to a driving gear, wherein as the driving gear rotates in a first direction or a second direction, the switching member is switched between a third position at which the switching member is connected to the gear portion to move the movable member from the second position to the first position and a fourth position at which the switching member is spaced apart from the gear portion to allow the movable member to move from the first position to the second position.

Developing cartridge and electrophotographic image forming apparatus employing same

A developing cartridge is disposed in an image forming apparatus. The developing cartridge includes a developing portion; a toner storing portion; a partition wall positioned between the developing portion and the toner storing portion and provided with a toner supply section; a first agitating member inside the developing portion; and a second agitating member inside the toner storing portion, wherein at least one of the first agitating member and the second agitating member comprises an elastic member to be in contact with the partition wall.

Cartridge

A cartridge attachable to and detachable from a body of an image forming apparatus includes a toner container containing a toner and including a stirring member configured to stir the toner, and a developing section connected to the toner container through a supply port and including a developing section stirring member configured to stir the toner, a supply roller configured to receive the toner supplied from the developing section stirring member, and a developing roller configured to receive the toner supplied from the supply roller. A rotation ratio of the stirring member to the supply roller is 5% to 25%.

Cartridge for printer

A cartridge that is attached to or detached from a main body of an image forming apparatus. The cartridge includes a memory unit that includes a contact portion via which the cartridge is connected to the main body and is connected to the main body to transmit information of the cartridge to the main body. The contact portion is moved to a first position at which the contact portion is hidden inside the cartridge and a second position at which the contact portions is protruded out of the cartridge to be connected to a connection portion provided in the main body.

Cartridge and electrophotographic image forming apparatus using the same

A toner cartridge and an electrophotographic image forming apparatus are provided. The toner cartridge attachable to, or detachable from a main body of an image forming apparatus includes a toner containing unit, a waste toner containing unit that is disposed below the toner containing unit in a gravitational direction and comprises a waste toner inlet through which waste toner flows, a first waste toner transporting member that transports the waste toner from the waste toner inlet in a length direction of the waste toner containing unit, and a second waste toner transporting member that transports the waste toner that is transported in the length direction of the waste toner containing unit in a width direction of the waste toner containing unit to disperse the waste toner in an inner portion of the waste toner containing unit, wherein a rotational center of the second waste toner transporting member is lower than a rotational center of the first waste toner transporting member.
