Toner cartridge and side cover thereof

摘要

The present invention provides a toner cartridge and a side cover thereof. The toner cartridge has a side opening, where the side cover is disposed, and a transmission device passing through the side opening. The toner cartridge is disposed in an electronic imaging device which is provided therein with a sliding rail, a moving piece, and an elastic member disposed between the sliding rail and the moving piece. The toner cartridge is installed into or unloaded from the electronic imaging device by sliding along the sliding rail. The side cover has a pushing portion located above the sliding rail for pushing the moving piece to move toward the elastic member in the process that the toner cartridge is unloaded from the electronic imaging device, so as to prevent the transmission device from being damaged by the moving piece, thereby extending the life time of the transmission device.
