PURPOSE:To prevent pollution due to toner cloud by breaking a toner vessel, which is suspended from a cover by fitting a hook part to a slit, with a toner vessel bursting means to supply a toner when the cover is closed. CONSTITUTION:In case of toner supply, the cover 5 of a toner bottle 3 is opened to store a toner vessel 9, in which the supply toner is stored, in the toner bottle 3. A hook part 91 is fitted into a slit 7 to attach the toner vessel 9 on the inside of the cover 5 at this time, and the cover 5 is closed to suspend the toner vessel 9 in the toner bottle 3. The knob 101 of a bursting means 10 is pushed to pierce the toner vessel 9 with a needle 102, and the toner is dropped and supplied into the toner bottle. Since the burst vessel 9 is deflated because it consists of an elastic member such as rubber, the hook part is picked to pull up the vessel 9 while closing the cover 5 as it is, and the vessel 9 is taken out from the slit 7. |
