Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent a storage body, and a machine cover and a floor surface in attachment and detachment from being stained by providing annular projection parts at proper positions of the outer circumference of the storage body. CONSTITUTION:An opening part 7 is provided at the upper part of the cylindrical storage body 6 and a detachable lid 8 is fitted to the opening part 7. Annular projection parts 10- are provided at proper positions of the outer circumference of the storage body 6. The storage body 6 fitted in a housing 11 with the opening part 7 up while the lid 8 is removed floats over the internal wall of the housing without contacting because the annular projection parts 10- provided to the outer circumference contact the internal wall of the housing 11. In this state, the storage body 6 is rotated by about 180 deg. to face the opening part 7 downward, and the toner stored therein is supplied to a developing machine. At this time, toner falling into the housing 11 does not stick to the outer circumference of the storage body 6. When the storage body 6 is drawn out of the housing 11, the cover is not stained and no toner falls on the floor surface even when the storage body contacts the machine cover.

床面を汚してしまうといった次点をもっていた。(Prior Art) As shown in FIG. 1, a conventional toner cartridge of this type is provided with an opening 2 at the top of a cylindrical toner storage body 1 for discharging the toner, and a lid 3 is attached to the opening 2. It was designed to be removable, and a handle 4 for rotating it could be added to the front side. This toner cartridge is stored in a storage body 1 as shown in FIG.
Remove the paper 3, open the opening 2, place the opening 2 in the developing machine 7/Ujifugu 5 with the opening 2 facing toward the ground, and use the handle 4 to tighten it approximately 180 mm as shown in FIG. The toner for development stored in the storage body 1 was supplied to the developing machine by rotating it once and setting it. However, in the toner cartridge having such a structure, when the storage body 1 is rotated for setting in the housing 5 of the developing machine, the toner stored therein is transferred into the housing from the opening 2 which is inclined at 90 degrees FI. The inner wall of the housing gets dirty for the first time, and about half of the outer periphery of the container 1 that comes into contact with the inner wall gets dirty, and when the container 1 is pulled out from the housing 5 of the developing machine, the opening is 2 is returned to the upward position and then the drawer is pulled out, so that the remaining half of the outer circumference of the storage body 1 also comes into contact with the inner wall of the housing 5 contaminated with the toner. This results in staining with toner, and when this comes into contact with the machine cover, or the toner is spilled onto the floor, the machine cover and floor are smeared.

としたものである。(Object of the Invention) The present invention has been made in order to eliminate the drawbacks of the conventional toner cartridges described above. When the housing itself is fitted into the housing of the developing machine, its outer periphery does not come into contact with the inner wall of the housing to prevent the housing from getting dirty with toner, and also prevent the machine cover and floor surface from getting dirty when installing and removing it. The object of the present invention is to provide a toner cartridge for a copying machine that is prevented from becoming dirty.

The annular convex portion 10 may be integrally formed with the main body 6, or an appropriate part may be added.

やれば良い。However, when the housing 6 is fitted into the housing of the developer, the annular protrusion 10 provided on the outer periphery of the housing 11 is placed inside the housing 11 of the developer, as shown in FIG.
By contacting the inner wall of the housing 11, it becomes suspended in the air without contacting the inner wall. In this state, the storage body 6 may be rotated approximately 180 degrees, with the opening I facing downward, and the toner stored therein may be supplied to the developing machine.

By providing annular protrusions 10...° at appropriate locations on the outer periphery of the storage body 6, when this is fitted into the /1 housing 11 of the developing machine, the outer periphery does not come into contact with the inner wall of the housing 11. Therefore, when rotating the developing machine so that the opening T faces downward in order to replenish toner to the developing machine, the toner that spills into the Ujifugu 11 is distributed around the outer periphery of the storage body 6. Therefore, the outer periphery will not be contaminated with toner and will get dirty. Therefore, even if the storage body 6 is brought into contact with the machine cover when it is pulled out from the housing 11 of the developing machine, the cover will not be soiled. This also has the effect of eliminating the possibility of spilling toner on the floor and staining it.

ことはいうまでもない。It should be noted that there is no reason why the present invention should be limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and for example, the annular protrusions 10 provided at appropriate locations on the outer periphery of the storage body 6 may be formed from protrusions of an appropriate shape rather than annular shapes. It goes without saying that an appropriate number of the above may be arranged at a predetermined position.
