CARTRIDGE, MEMBER CONSTITUTING CARTRIDGE, AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18648713 titled 'CARTRIDGE, MEMBER CONSTITUTING CARTRIDGE, AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation:
The patent application describes a cartridge with a developing roller and a frame that supports the roller. A lever connected to the frame can move relative to it, with a part of the lever protruding beyond the frame. The cartridge also includes a memory board and an electrode portion connected to the memory board. When the cartridge is positioned with the lever and electrode portion at the bottom, the protruding part of the lever extends downward, and part of the developing roller is positioned above the rotational axis.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Cartridge design with a developing roller and frame
- Movable lever connected to the frame
- Memory board and electrode portion included
- Specific orientation for lever and electrode portion
- Exposed part of developing roller positioned above rotational axis
Potential Applications: This technology could be used in various printing and imaging devices where precise control of developing rollers is required.
Problems Solved: This technology addresses the need for a compact and efficient cartridge design for developing rollers in printing devices.
Benefits:
- Improved control and positioning of developing rollers

Original Abstract Submitted
A cartridge includes a developing roller and a frame configured to support the developing roller. A lever is connected to the frame, with the lever being movable relative to the frame, and with a part of the lever protruding beyond the frame. The cartridge also includes a memory board. and an electrode portion connected to the memory board. When the cartridge is oriented with the lever and the electrode portion at a bottom portion of the cartridge, the protruding part of the lever protrudes downward from the frame and at least a part of an exposed part of the developing roller is positioned above the rotational axis.
