<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a developer container which can quickly and surely open the exhaust hole, by removing the edge of the sealing sheet from around the exhaust hole, without loosening the connection of the support and the end of the sealing sheet, when turning the container body in the initial state. <P>SOLUTION: This developer container includes a main container, which is formed cylindrical to store the developer with a hole provided to deliver the developer and moves the developer toward the hole by turning around its axis, a support to support the container, from around in the radial direction making it freely turnable about its axis, and a sealing sheet which seals the discharge orifice with respect to the support, when the main container is in the initial state but opens the hole, when the main container turns. The connection of the support and the end the sealing sheet is stronger than the adhesive strength between the brim of ejection hole and the other edge of the sealing sheet. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI |
