<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a toner recovery device that can prevent clogging of a filter, and stably recover toner, and an image forming apparatus including the toner recovery device.SOLUTION: A toner recovery unit 8 includes a housing 80, an inflow port 800, a first fan 83, a lower duct 803, a first filter 81, and a vibration motor 812. The inflow port 800 is opened to the housing 80, and through which a toner flows in together with an airflow. The first fan 83 is arranged inside the housing 80 to take in the airflow flowed through the inflow port 800 and exhausts the airflow to the outside of the housing 80. The lower duct 803 guides the airflow from a lower side toward an upper side. The first filter 81 has an approach surface in which the airflow approaches on the upper side of the lower duct 803, arranged facing the lower side to collect the toner and pass through the airflow. The vibration motor 812 vibrates the first filter 81.</p> |
