A toner replenishing device comprising a container (2) having an acceptance opening (10) for a toner, and a toner cartridge (4) removably mounted on the container (2) so as to traverse the acceptance opening (10) along an upper surface portion extending at the upper end of the acceptance opening, and using a shutter member (80) when the toner cartridge is removed from the container. An engaged hole (37) is formed in one side part of the container. In one side part of the shutter member (80) opposed to the one side part of the container, a hook portion (90) is formed for being engaged with the engaged hole (37) to allow the turn of the shutter member (80) in the direction of insertion between the lower surface of the toner cartridge and the upper surface portion of the container, as well as in the reverse direction, and to regulate the position of the shutter member (80) in the width direction relative to the container (2). <IMAGE> |
