Abstract:
A developing cartridge may include: a casing; a developing roller extending in a first direction; a developing-roller gear; a coupling including a coupling gear; a first idle gear; a second idle gear; an agitator; a first agitator gear; and a protrusion. The developing-roller gear, the coupling, the first idle gear, the second idle gear, the first agitator gear, and the protrusion may be positioned at an outer surface of the casing. The protrusion may be positioned between a first axis of the coupling and a third axis of the first agitator gear in a second direction connecting the first and third axes. The protrusion may be positioned outside an addendum circle of the developing-roller gear, an addendum circle of the coupling gear, an addendum circle of the first idle gear, and an addendum circle of the second idle gear. The first agitator gear may be spaced apart from the protrusion in the first direction.

Claim (Index 1):
A developing cartridge comprising:\n a casing configured to accommodate a developer therein; a developing roller extending in a first direction; a coupling rotatable about a first axis extending in the first direction, the developing roller being rotatable in accordance with rotation of the coupling; an agitator rotatable about a second axis extending in the first direction in accordance with rotation of the coupling; an agitator gear mounted to the agitator and rotatable with the agitator about the second axis, the agitator gear including a first gear part and a second gear part positioned between the casing and the first gear part in the first direction, a first diameter of the first gear part being larger than a second diameter of the second gear part; and a protrusion extending in the first direction, the protrusion being positioned between the first axis and the second axis in a second direction connecting the first axis and the second axis, the protrusion being spaced apart from the first gear part in the first direction.
