Abstract

The invention provides a toner container and an imaging device. The toner container comprises a main container body, a cover part and a seal part, wherein a toner is stored in the main container body which can rotate; the cover part covers an open part on the main container body and keeps a rotation stop state during rotation of the main container body. The seal part is mounted between the main container body and the cover part, keeps a rotation stop state during rotation of the main container body and is at least partially made of an elastic material.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a toner container and an image forming apparatus having the toner container. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, in an electrophotographic image forming apparatus, development processing is performed by supplying toner to an electrostatic latent image formed on the surface of an image carrier (for example, a photosensitive drum) from a developing device. Toner used in this developing process is supplied from a toner container to a developing device. The above-mentioned toner container has, for example, a container main body for accommodating toner and is rotatable. [0003] In the toner container having the above configuration, the opening of the container main body may be covered by a cover member that keeps the rotation stopped when the container main body is rotated. In this case, toner easily leaks out from between the container main body and the cover member, compared to the case where the cover member ...
