| 20120027472 | Image Forming Device Having Belt Disposed Above Developing Unit - An image-forming device includes a main body; a developing unit; a transferring unit; and a tray. The developing unit has a developer-accommodating section that accommodates developer and a photosensitive member on which an electrostatic latent image is formed. The developing unit further has a developer-carrying member to develop the electrostatic latent image. The tray enables the developing unit to move between a contact position and a separate position. | 02-02-2012 |
| 20100209140 | Image-Forming Device with Holding Unit Having Multiple Positions - An image-forming device includes a main body; at least one photosensitive member; a plurality of developing units; and a transferring unit. Each developing unit has a developer-accommodating section that accommodates developer. Each developing unit further has a developer-carrying member. | 08-19-2010 |
| 20090028602 | Image-Forming Device - An image-forming device includes: a main body; at least one photosensitive member; a plurality of developing units; a transferring unit; a first holding unit; and a guiding unit. The photosensitive member has a support shaft. Each developing unit has a developer-accommodating section that accommodates developer. The developer-accommodating section has an opening in a top side thereof. Each developing unit further has a developer-carrying member that is disposed near the opening of the developer-accommodating section. The first holding unit holds the plurality of developing units that are arranged in a row along a first removal direction. The first removal direction is orthogonal to the support shaft of the photosensitive member. The first holding unit is accommodated at a first accommodating position in the main body. The guiding unit enables the first holding unit to move between the first accommodating position and a first removal position that is separate from the first accommodating position in the first removal direction. | 01-29-2009 |
