A developing device has a developer container, a first stirring member, and a first stirring chamber. The developer container stores toner. The first stirring member conveys toner while stirring it. The first stirring chamber is arranged in the developer container, has the first stirring member arranged therein, and has in a top surface thereof a toner supply port through which toner is supplied from outside by the action of gravity. The first stirring member has a reduced conveying power portion arranged on the downstream side of the toner supply port in the conveying direction of toner and exerting reduced conveying power to toner. The first stirring chamber has a developer stagnation portion arranged at a position facing the reduced conveying power portion. The inner surface of the developer stagnation portion has a smaller surface roughness than the inner surface except for the developer stagnation portion.

A system for an electrophotographic image forming device includes a basket for holding multiple toner cartridges. A guide rail assembly operatively connected to an access door moves between a raised position and a lowered position to raise and lower the basket when the access door moves between an open position and a closed position. The basket is slidable along the guide rail assembly into and out of the image forming device when the guide rail assembly is in the raised position, and is in an operational position within the image forming device when the guide rail assembly is in the lowered position. A rail lock mechanism locks the access door in the open position when the guide rail assembly is in the raised position and the basket is extended out of the image forming device and unlocks the access door from the open position when the basket is inserted.

A developing device includes a developer roller to rotate in a rotation direction, a photosensitive body adjacent the developer roller, and an air flow passage extending through a non-image forming region at a longitudinal end of the developer roller. A closest position is defined where the developer roller and a photosensitive body are closest to one another. The air flow passage extends from inside the developing device and forms an air flow directed toward an upstream side of the closest position, relative to the rotation direction of the developer roller.

A developer cartridge including a housing to contain a developer and including a developer outlet from which the developer is dischargeable. A transport member is arranged inside the housing to rotate to transport the developer to the developer outlet. A volume adjustment member is insertable inside the transport member opposite to the developer outlet to adjust an inside volume of the housing.

A toner container information acquiring method includes: measuring a toner amount contained in a resin forming a toner container; and acquiring information regarding mechanical strength of the toner container based on the measured toner amount.

The process unit is configured to be rotatable relative to the frame about a rotation axis extending in a rotation axis direction of the photosensitive drum between a first position at which the photosensitive drum comes into contact with the transfer member and forms the transfer nip portion and a second position at which the photosensitive drum is separated from the transfer member, and a direction in which the process unit rotates from the first position to the second position is a direction in which the replenishing port of the process unit moves away when the process unit is viewed from the front surface side.

A developing device includes a first housing member, and a second housing member that is configured by combining a housing, in which a developer accommodation space accommodating a developer and a roll accommodation space accommodating a development roll are provided, and the first housing member with each other and that includes an integrated member obtained by integrally forming a frame-shaped seal attachment portion and an outer shell portion with each other, the seal attachment portion being a portion to which a seal member separating the developer accommodation space and the roll accommodation space from each other is attached, the outer shell portion constituting an outer shell that separates an inside and an outside of the housing from each other.

A system for an electrophotographic image forming device includes a basket having a first side, a second side and a plurality of positioning slots extending between the first side and the second side, each positioning slot is configured to receive a corresponding toner cartridge. Each positioning slot includes a first latch at the first side of the basket and a second latch at the second side of the basket. Each of the first and second latches is independently pivotable between a latched position for applying a hold-down force on a respective end portion of a corresponding toner cartridge positioned in a corresponding positioning slot of the plurality of positioning slots to rigidly hold the corresponding toner cartridge against datums of the basket and an unlatched position to release the corresponding toner cartridge permitting removal of the corresponding toner cartridge from the basket.

Systems and methods relating to accurate Channel State Information (CSI) measurements for a License Assisted Secondary Cell (LA SCell) are disclosed herein. An exemplary user equipment enabled includes a transceiver, at least one processor, and memory containing instructions executable by the at least one processor whereby the user equipment operates to detect whether a downlink control information (DCI) message indicating that a Channel State Information Reference Symbol (CSI-RS) transmission from an LA SCell of the user equipment is present in a subframe. When the user equipment detects that the DCI message indicates that a CSI-RS transmission from the LA SCell is present in the subframe, it processes a CSI-RS measurement. When the user equipment detects that the DCI message does not indicate that a CSI-RS transmission from the LA SCell is present in the subframe, it refrains from processing the CSI-RS measurement.

A recording device includes a support portion that supports a medium, a recording unit that performs recording on the supported medium, an irradiation unit that emits light on the medium on which recording is performed, a housing that covers the support portion, the recording unit, and the irradiation unit, wherein the housing includes light transmissive members through which an inside of the housing is visually recognizable, the light transmissive members being provided at four surfaces including an upper surface, a left side surface, a right side surface, and a front surface that constitute the housing, the light transmissive members being configured to reduce transmittance of light transmitted through the four surfaces from the inside of the housing.
