PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To efficiently discharge the toner from a toner replenishing opening part by setting the center of rotation of a toner carrying member to carry the toner in the direction where the toner replenishing opening part is provided, in an opening area of the toner replenishing opening part. SOLUTION: A cylindrical toner replenishing opening part 11a to supply the stored toner to a device body is projected on a lower part of one side surface 1A1 of a container body 1A. A carrying member 2 carries the toner stored in the container body 1A to a toner replenishing port 1g. The carrying member 2 is mounted on the container body 1A in a condition where the axis of a shaft part 2A is approximately agreed with the center of the approximately circular toner replenishing port 1g. The sectional area of the toner replenishing opening part 1a is set to be >=2 times that of the shaft part 2A of the carrying member 2, preferably, >=3 times, and most preferably, >=5 times. |
