Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3432076A1] A force for warping a regulating blade (36) is imparted to the regulating blade (36) in such a manner that a gap (G) between a developer bearing member (70) supported by a development frame member (30) and the regulating blade (36) attached to an attaching portion (41) of the development frame member (30) falls within a predetermined range over a longitudinal direction of the developer bearing member (70). The regulating blade (36) is fixed to the attaching portion (41) in a state in which the regulating blade (36) is warped by the force imparted to the regulating blade (36) and the gap (G) is within the predetermined range over the longitudinal direction of the developer bearing member (70).
