    摘要: A toner container (6) includes a container body (21) having a discharging port (37) discharging a toner, a rotating member (22), a moving member (23), a transmitting member (25) transmitting rotation to the rotating member (22), an agitating member (24) agitating the toner in the container body (21), and a connecting member (26) transmitting rotation to the agitating member (24). At least a part of the rotating member (22) is at least partly installed in the container body (21). At least a part of the transmitting member (25) is arranged outside the container body (21). The rotating member (22) includes a following coupling (56) facing to the outside of the container body (21). The transmitting member (25) includes a transmitting coupling (98) connected to the following coupling (56). The agitating member (24) includes an agitating coupling (86) facing to the outside of the container body (21). The connecting member (26) includes a connecting coupling (104) connected to the agitating coupling (86). The agitating coupling (86) is arranged outside the outer circumference of the following coupling (56).

    摘要: A toner case (6) includes a case main body (21) and an agitator (26). The case main body (21) stores a toner. The agitator (26) rotates around a rotation axis (X) extending along one direction and agitates the toner stored in the case main body (21). The case main body (21) includes a curve (39) and a recess (40). The curve (39) is curved in an arc shape around the rotation axis (X). The recess (40) is recessed from the curve (39) toward a side remote from the rotation axis (X). In a state where the agitator (26) is in a first rotating position, a part of the agitator (26) comes into contact with an inner circumferential face of the curve (39) so that the part of the agitator (26) is in a bent state. In a state where the agitator (26) is in a second rotating position, the part of the agitator (26) is inserted into the recess (40).
