PURPOSE:To stably contain toner in a recovery container and to miniaturize a device by making the recovery container collide with a fixed member and giving a specific acceleration. CONSTITUTION:The recovery container 13 possesses a toner reception port 13a on one edge side and motion is given to the container in order to fill it with the toner. Namely, the container 13 moves to an opposite side with the energization of a spring 17 to collide with the fixed member 19 provided on a fixed frame 15 repeatedly when it is made to be displaced to one edge side where the toner reception port 13a of the collecting container 13 is provided by resisting the energization of the spring 17 by an actuation means 18 and the actuation means 18 releases the actuation with the stage part of a cam or the non-excitation of an electromagnet. With every motion, the container is made to collide with the fixed member 19 so that the acceleration of 0.5-3.0G (G means the acceleration of gravity) can be given. Thus, an image forming device can be made compact since the recovery container can be filled with the toner plentifully. |
