Abstract:
At ends of a frame in an axial direction of a developing roller, a first end portion member and a second end portion member are provided so as to be rotatable around a rotation axis parallel to the axial direction, and at least one of them has one side in a direction orthogonal to the rotation axis on which a force receiving portion is provided, and another side in the direction orthogonal to the rotation axis on which a regulating portion is provided. The force receiving portion receives biasing force in a mounting direction of the developing apparatus to the apparatus main body from a biasing member. The regulating portion is brought into contact with the apparatus main body to regulate movement of the other side relative to the apparatus main body in a direction opposite to the mounting direction, with a fulcrum being the rotation axis.

Claim (Index 5):
The developing apparatus according to  claim 1 ,\n wherein the regulating portion has a vertical surface extended in the first direction, and wherein the regulating portion regulates the movement of the other side of said one end portion member relative to the apparatus main body in the direction opposite to the mounting direction, when the vertical surface is brought into abutment against the apparatus main body.
