DEVELOPER SUPPLY CONTAINER AND DEVELOPER SUPPLYING SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18436193 titled 'DEVELOPER SUPPLY CONTAINER AND DEVELOPER SUPPLYING SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a rotatable developer accommodating portion with a discharge end portion and an engaging portion for mounting the developer supply container. A swing shaft supports the engaging portion for rotation.
- Developer accommodating portion for holding developer
- Discharge end portion with a discharge opening
- Engaging portion for mounting the developer supply container
- Swing shaft supporting the engaging portion for rotation
Potential Applications
The technology described in the patent application could be applied in various industries such as printing, photocopying, and other imaging processes where developers are used.
Problems Solved
This technology solves the problem of efficiently discharging developer from the developer accommodating portion by providing a mechanism for fluid communication between the receiving opening and the discharge opening.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved developer supply container mounting operations, enhanced developer discharge efficiency, and overall increased productivity in developer-related processes.
Potential Commercial Applications
The technology could be commercially applied in the manufacturing of printers, copiers, and other imaging devices that require developers for their operation.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be a similar mechanism used in developer supply containers in the printing industry, but with less efficient discharge capabilities.
Unanswered Questions
How does the engaging portion interact with the mounting operation of the developer supply container?
The patent application does not provide detailed information on the specific mechanism by which the engaging portion interacts with the mounting operation of the developer supply container.
What materials are used in the construction of the rotatable developer accommodating portion?
The patent application does not specify the materials used in the construction of the rotatable developer accommodating portion.
Original Abstract Submitted
There are provided a rotatable developer accommodating portion accommodating a developer, a discharge end portion provided at a bottom side with a discharge opening for discharging the developer accommodated in the developer accommodating portion, an engaging portion engageable with a portion-to-be-engaged with a mounting operation of the developer supply container to displace the portion-to-be-engaged in an upward direction U to bring the receiving opening into fluid communication with the discharge opening, and a swing shaft rotatably supporting engaging portion provided at such a position that opposite end portions of the engaging portion a rotatable.
