A developer reservoir in which a flexible seal member is separably bonded to the circumferential surface of an opening in a bottom portion of a reservoir body containing a developer for sealing the same opening. A portion extended from the bonded flexible seal member is spot-bonded on a plurality of portions of the bottom portion of the reservoir body so that when a considerably large pulling out force is applied to the seal member the seal member is separated first from the spot-bonded portions of the bottom portion of the reservoir body and then from the circumferential surface of the opening of the reservoir body. A sliding cover is also included below the seal member so that the sliding cover can be drawn in a right angle direction to the separating direction of the seal member. |
