Developer supply control device and image forming device

An image forming device, comprising:

• a main body including a frame and a containing chamber, wherein the containing chamber is used to accommodate a developer containing device and a developer supply control device, wherein:
• the developer supply control device includes:
• an imaging component;
• a developer transmission channel for connecting the developer containing device and the imaging component;
• a developer transmission component, at least partially disposed in the developer transmission channel and used to transmit developer in the developer transmission channel supplied from the developer containing device to the imaging component;
• a residual information feedback unit, used to send residual information of the developer in the imaging component to the image forming device, wherein the residual information of the developer is used to determine whether the developer needs to be supplied to the imaging component;
• and
• a state detection unit, used to detect a working state of the developer transmission component, wherein:
• when the image forming device acquires the working state information, the residual information of the developer and the working state information are used to determine whether to control the developer containing device to supply the developer to the developer transmission channel,
• and
• a developer supply control unit, used to control the developer containing device to supply the developer to the developer transmission channel based on residual information of the developer in the imaging component and working state information of the developer transmission component of the developer supply control device.

A developer supply control device, comprising:

• an imaging component;
• a developer transmission channel for connecting a developer containing device and the imaging component;
• a developer transmission component, at least partially disposed in the developer transmission channel and used to transmit the developer in the developer transmission channel supplied from the developer containing device to the imaging component;
• a residual information feedback unit, used to send residual information of the developer in the imaging component to an image forming device, wherein the residual information of the developer being used to determine whether the developer needs to be supplied to the imaging component;
• and
• a state detection unit installation area, used to install a state detection unit, wherein the state detection unit is used to detect a working state of the developer transmission component, and when the image forming device acquires the working state information, the residual information of the developer and the working state information are used to determine whether to control the developer containing device to supply the developer to the developer transmission channel.
