[0021] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 , in an embodiment of the present utility model, a toner cartridge facilitating powder filling includes a toner cartridge main body 1 which can be filled with toner and is used for being installed at a designated position of a printer. A pouring opening 2 is provided at the upper end of the toner cartridge main body 1, and toner can be added into the toner cartridge main body 1 through the pouring opening 2. An inclined groove 4 is formed on the pouring opening 2, and a movable plate 3 is connected to the inclined groove 4 through a triangular block 5. The movable plate 3 can move along the inclined groove 4 through the triangular block 5. There are four movable plates 3. When the four movable plates 3 move upward, the distance between every two of them will gradually increase, thereby increasing the diameter of the pouring opening 2 to facilitate powder filling. And the connection cloth 9 is connected between every two movable plates 3 to prevent toner from leaking out.

[0022] A first magnet 6 is fixedly connected to the hypotenuse of the triangular block 5, and a second magnet 7 and a third magnet 8 are arranged on the inclined groove 4. Through the first magnet 6 and the second magnet 7, the movable plate 3 can be fixed at the lowest position. Through the first magnet 6 and the third magnet 8, the movable plate 3 can be fixed at the highest position.

[0023] An infrared sensor head 10 is arranged at the pouring opening 2. When toner passes through the pouring opening 2, the infrared sensor head 10 can perform real-time monitoring. An outer frame 11 is arranged inside the toner cartridge main body 1, and a driving motor 12 is arranged inside the outer frame 11. When the infrared sensor head 10 senses the falling of toner, it will make the driving motor 12 work through the control system, thereby driving the connecting rod 13 and the connecting block 14 to rotate, and finally making the cutting blade 15 rotate to realize the cutting and pulverization of the toner, so as to avoid the influence of agglomerated toner on the printing work.

[0024] The working principle of the present utility model is as follows: When it is necessary to add toner into the toner cartridge main body 1, at this time, the movable plate 3 is pulled upward along the inclined groove 4. The movable plate 3 will move upward along the inclined groove 4 through the triangular block 5. When the four movable plates 3 move to the uppermost position, the movable plate 3 will be fixed by the first magnet 6 and the third magnet 8. At this time, the distance between the movable plates 3 increases, thereby increasing the diameter of the pouring port 2 to facilitate the pouring of toner. At the same time, the movable plates 3 are connected by a connecting cloth 9, and the toner will not leak out between the two movable plates 3. When the toner drops through the pouring port 2, the infrared sensor head 10 monitors it. After monitoring, the control system makes the drive motor 12 work, thereby driving the connecting rod 13 and the connecting block 14 to rotate, and finally making the cutting blade 15 rotate to realize the cutting of the dropped toner, preventing the toner from caking and affecting the printing work, ensuring a good printing effect, and at the same time avoiding the caked toner from blocking the pouring port and affecting the toner filling efficiency.

[0025] The above is only the preferred specific embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present utility model, according to the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, making equivalent substitutions or changes should be covered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
