PURPOSE:To enable reduction in transportation cost by constituting foldably a container for accepting a recovered toner so that the container is easily assembled and used in the stage of use and is folded to a compact unit in the stage of transportation. CONSTITUTION:The container 83 for accepting the recovered toner consists of a toner accepting port 831 and a paper container 832. The port 831 is formed integrally by a mold and an adhesive agent such as a double-coated tape is applied to the flange part (b) thereof, by which the container 832 is adhered to the port 831. A bellows-shaped inside bag is attached to the inside of the vessel 832 to constitute the container 832 in such a way that the container can be folded during transportation. The container is therefore folded to a compact unit in the stage of transportation, by which the transportation cost is considerably reduced. The container is easily assembled and used to provide the prescribed function in the stage of use. |
