Abstract: A developing device includes a seal member adhered to a frame along an axial direction of a developing roller. The seal member seals between the frame and an outer peripheral surface of the developing roller. The frame has a seal supporting surface extending along the axial direction, on which the seal member is supported in a cantilevered fashion. The seal member includes a sheet-like member and an elastic adhesive member. One end portion of the sheet-like member is fixed to the seal supporting surface through the elastic adhesive member, and the other end portion is in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the developing roller. The elastic adhesive member has a first surface adhered to the sheet-like member and a second surface adhered to the seal supporting surface, and at least one slit is formed along the axial direction from the second surface toward the first surface.

Abstract: A developer storage unit includes first and second rotary members. The first rotary member includes: first contacting portion capable of contacting with the second rotary member, first non-contacting portion not in contact with the second rotary member, and first stopper portion offset from the first contacting portion in an axial direction of the first rotary member. The second rotary member includes: second contacting portion capable of contacting with the first rotary member, second non-contacting portion not in contact with the first rotary member, second stopper portion offset from the second contacting portion in an axial direction of the second rotary member, and detected portion detected by detector. The second stopper portion comes into contact with the first stopper portion when the detected portion is moved from used product detecting position to new product detecting position while the first non-contacting portion is positioned to face the second rotary member.
