Abstract

The present invention provides a toner container and an image forming apparatus capable of improving the replacement work efficiency of the toner container. The toner container includes: an elongated container main body; a first toner accommodating portion capable of accommodating toner inside and disposed on one side in the longitudinal direction of the container main body; a second toner container an accommodating portion capable of accommodating toner inside is provided on the other side of the container body in the longitudinal direction; and a grip portion is provided between the first toner accommodating portion and the second toner accommodating portion. There is at least one concave portion between the toner storage portions, and the at least one concave portion is formed on a side portion of the container body perpendicular to the longitudinal direction on one side in the width direction of the container body.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a toner container and an image forming apparatus having two storage portions capable of storing toner. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, an image forming apparatus capable of forming an image on paper using a developer containing toner is known. Such an image forming apparatus is provided with a toner container for replenishing toner to an internal developing device. The toner container is detachably provided on the main body of the image forming apparatus. When the toner in the toner container is consumed and the toner container becomes empty, the toner container is removed from the image forming apparatus and replaced with a new toner container containing unused toner. [0003] In addition, in the conventional image forming apparatus, there is provided a cleaning device for removing used toner (waste toner) remaining on the photosensitive drum after transfer, and a storage unit for storing the waste tone...
