(Prior Art and Problems) In this type of developing device, a latent image carrier having a maximum image area width L is provided with a developing sleeve such as a developing sleeve for forming a magnetic brush with a developer having a coating width L ′ on the outer peripheral surface. Body (hereinafter referred to as "developing sleeve"). Are placed close to each other. In the magnetic brush, magnetic particles are formed in a spike shape on the surface of the developing sleeve by a magnetic force generated by a magnetic field generating means built in the developing sleeve, and toner adheres to the surface of the magnetic particles by electrostatic force. In this state, the latent image carrier such as the photosensitive drum (hereinafter referred to as "photosensitive drum"). By applying a bias voltage between the developing sleeve and the developing sleeve, the toner is transferred to the photosensitive drum.

In such a conventional apparatus, the relationship between the maximum image area width L on the photosensitive drum and the developer coating L'on the developing sleeve is L in order to prevent a decrease in density at both ends of the image.
Since it was set as ≤L ', it was normal.

In the conventional two-component developing device, since the amount of toner actually used for the development is extremely small with respect to the developer (toner amount) existing in the developing area, that is, the developing efficiency is low. In addition, a sufficient amount of developer (including toner and carrier) is required in the developing area. As the developing sleeve rotates, the coating of the developer spreads more easily than its end and becomes sparse in the vicinity of the end. Also, at the position closest to the photosensitive drum, the spikes of the magnetic brush of the developer become dense at the central part due to contact with the photosensitive drum, but at the end part sideways (axial direction) due to the magnetic line of force at the end part. It spreads and becomes sparse. Thus, there is a difference in the density (amount) of the developer in the vicinity of the central portion and in the vicinity of the end portion, and there is a tendency for the concentration to be low at the end portion due to the influence of low development efficiency. Therefore, in a general two-component developing device, the developer coating width L'is set to have a relationship of L≤L 'with respect to the maximum image area width L as described above.

However, in this case, since the developer is present in addition to the width of the image area, the toner is fused to the photosensitive drum or scattered in the machine, which causes an undesirable phenomenon.

L-2 (l-d) <L '<L In the apparatus of this embodiment having such a configuration, at least the image portion of the photosensitive drum 1 and the developing sleeve 2 are arranged in order to transfer the toner of the magnetic brush to the photosensitive drum. An alternating electric field in which a DC component is superposed is formed by a voltage 6 (see FIG. 3) between them, and the toner is transferred to the photosensitive drum. The mechanism of this toner transfer is already known and is not the main subject of the present invention, so a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

次に、本実施例装置における動作について説明する。 Next, the operation of the apparatus of this embodiment will be described.

The magnetic brush, on which the developer is formed in a spike shape on the developing sleeve 2, is regulated by the rotation of the developing sleeve 2.
Will be brought to the position of and pass through here. As a result, the magnetic brush has a free length and the height of each spike is adjusted to l.
The height l is set to be larger than the distance d between the photosensitive drum 1 and the developing sleeve 2 as described above.

When the magnetic brush having the height l is brought into the developing area having the distance d, l <d as shown in FIG.
Therefore, the magnetic brush comes into contact with the surface of the photosensitive drum 1 and bends, and as a result, the developer is present in this area in a uniform and dense state. This development occurs in the entire range in the axial direction, but at both ends in the axial direction, due to the influence at the ends of the magnet 3, the axial length is almost equal to the bent length, that is, 1-d. Direction outwards (first
See figure). In addition to this, in the magnetic brush method, a magnetic brush with a certain width (axial width) is generally affected by vibrations caused by rotation of the developing sleeve before the magnetic brush reaches the developing area. There is a tendency to spread one or two rows of particles.

Under such circumstances, in the present invention, the above-mentioned end portion regulation member
The developer coating width (coating width) in 5, 5 or the distance L'between the end regulating members 5, 5 is smaller than the maximum image width L of the photosensitive drum, but is a spread amount at both ends. It means that up to a certain 2 (ld) is allowed.

すなわち、これを式で示すならば L−2(l−d)<L′<L を満足するようにL′を設定すればよい。 That is, if this is expressed by an equation, L'may be set so as to satisfy L-2 (ld) <L '<L.

First, for magnetic brushes, the height l is l <0.5m
In the region of m, a sufficient bending effect of magnetic particles cannot be obtained, and when l ≧ 2.5 mm, the density of magnetic particles in the central part is abnormally increased and a good image cannot be obtained, and the range of 0.5 ≦ l ≦ 2.5 mm And good results were obtained. On the other hand, the distance d between the photosensitive drum and the developing sleeve must be d <l for the purpose of the present invention. Further, due to the developing characteristics, sufficient density and uniformity were obtained in the region of d ≦ 750 μm.

The present invention prevents the toner from scattering outside the image area and the fusion on the drum, and is effective when applied to a general electrophotographic apparatus. It is even more effective if the transfer paper is forcibly separated by. That is, the developer (mainly the carrier) is not attached to the photoconductor to be sandwiched between the photoconductor and the separation belt to damage the photoconductor and further the separation belt.
It will extend their life.

(Effects of the Invention) The present invention provides an apparatus in which a latent image bearing member and a developer bearing member are arranged with a gap, and as described above, the coating width of the developer on the developer bearing member Since it is set to be narrower than the maximum image area width of the carrier and wider than the value obtained by subtracting twice the difference between the height of the magnetic brush and the above interval from the maximum image area width, the magnetic brush is set densely in the image area. In this state, it is possible to prevent the developer from scattering to the outside of the end portion of the area, and as a result, it is possible to prevent the undesirable phenomenon such as the deterioration of the image quality due to the lack of adhesion to the latent image bearing member. In the apparatus using the separation belt, it is possible to obtain the effect of extending the life of the latent image carrier and the separation belt without damaging them.
