Problems solved by technology

[0011] However, in the prior art starting from the above-mentioned Patent Document 1, in order to recycle the used toner cartridge, the user needs to take out the seal from the recycling kit and block the part where the toner leaks. homework problem.
[0012] In addition, even with reference to the instruction manual, it is easy for an inexperienced user to leak the remaining toner or to contaminate the hand with the toner. , the problem still to be solved is that the operation time takes much longer than that of skilled personnel such as maintenance personnel.

Embodiment Construction

[0045] Hereinafter, the best form for carrying out the invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0046] Fig. 1 is an example of an embodiment of the invention, and is an explanatory diagram (sectional view viewed from the front) showing the overall configuration of a color image generating device (corresponding to an "image generating device") of the embodiment. Figs. 2- Figure 6 These are explanatory diagrams of the waste toner recovery container (corresponding to the "waste developer recovery container") 38 and the airtight member 40 in the color image forming apparatus 1.

[0047] As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the waste developer recovery container (waste toner recovery container 38) of the image forming apparatus of this embodiment accommodates the image information formed on the electrostatic latent image carrier (photosensitive drum 21). Among the developer (toner) used for imaging, the developer that is not transferred to the recording...

Abstract

The present invention provides a waste toner collecting container which is used in a color image forming apparatus. The container can be removed from the image forming apparatus and stores waste toner which have not been transferred to recording paper and have been collected. The collecting container is constructed such that an air sealing member is disposed at the coupling between the waste toner collecting container and a conveying member for conveying the collected waste toner into the waste toner collecting container. The air sealing member can prevent the waste toner from seeping out at the coupling when the waste toner is conveyed and to seal the collecting port so that no waste toner will spill out from the waste toner collecting container which has been removed for replacement after the waste toner collected and conveyed therein has reached the predetermined amount.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a waste developer recovery container of an image forming apparatus, which contains a developer for visualizing image information formed on an electrostatic latent image carrier in an electrophotographic image forming apparatus Developers that are not transferred to recording media such as recording paper and are collected as waste developer. Background technique [0002] The developer (called toner) used in the image generation device has a small particle size. When the user disposes of it, it has an impact on the human body. Therefore, as industrial waste, the manufacturer is responsible for recycling and disposal. obligation. [0003] The disposal of such industrial waste must take measures that are safe for users, and at the same time, manufacturers must pay sufficient attention to the safety of workers who perform the work. [0004] In an image forming apparatus, as a means of developing image information on paper...
