Abstract: A developer container includes a first housing, a rotator drawing a first rotation trajectory in the first housing, a second housing, a developer conveyor in the second housing, and multiple partitions between the first housing and the second housing. The second housing communicates with the first housing. The developer conveyor conveys developer from the second housing to the first housing and includes a rotation shaft and a flexible sheet extending from the rotation shaft. The developer conveyor is rotatable about the rotation shaft to draw an imaginary second rotation trajectory overlapping the first rotation trajectory under an imaginary condition in which the flexible sheet contacts no member and does not bend. The multiple partitions between the first housing and the second housing are arranged at intervals in a rotation shaft direction and are contactable by the flexible sheet rotating around the rotation shaft.

Abstract: A developing device includes a plurality of conveyance passages, an opening portion, and a filter. Developer is conveyed in the plurality of conveyance passages in a longitudinal direction of the developing device. The opening portion is disposed in one conveyance passage of the plurality of conveyance passages and communicates with an outside of the developing device. The filter is fitted in the opening portion and has both a collecting ability to collect the developer and a ventilation ability to ventilate the one conveyance passage to the outside of the developing device. The collecting ability of the filter is higher in a high-bulk portion in which bulk of the developer increases in the one conveyance passage than in a low-bulk portion in which the bulk of the developer decreases in the one conveyance passage. The ventilation ability of the filter is lower in the high-bulk portion than in the low-bulk portion.

Abstract: A powder container includes a nozzle receiving opening, a container body, a nozzle receiver including the nozzle receiving opening; a gear, and two scoops. Further, there is a shutter to open and close the nozzle receiving opening, a spring to bias the shutter, two protrusions which protrude away from the nozzle receiving opening. The scoops extend in the longitudinal direction along a first length, the protrusions extend in the longitudinal direction along a second length, and a position of the first length and a position of the second length at least partly overlap along the longitudinal direction. The powder dropped from the higher position enters the region by passing between the protrusions when the scoops are rotated about the rotational axis, and the protrusions are rotated, due to the rotation of the gear, around the region when the scoops are rotated about the rotational axis.
