<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a toner cartridge which easily prevents blocking by toner while increasing toner capacity. <P>SOLUTION: An inner wall 81 is provided in an extension part 79 so as to divide it to a toner storage part 79A and a void part 79B, and the toner storage part 79A in the extension part 79 is formed so that its cross-sectional area may be smaller toward a downstream side (right side in the figure) in a conveying direction. Thus, toner amount inside the toner storage part 79A gets smaller and smaller toward the downstream side in the conveying direction and the toner moves in a direction where the volume of the toner gets small even when the toner is conveyed by an agitator 80, whereby the toner is hardly compressed and packing is avoided. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT |
