A toner cartridge is detachably attached to an image forming apparatus and supplies toner to the image forming apparatus. The locking mechanism is positioned either at a locking position or at a non-locking position. Shortly after the toner cartridge has been attached to the image forming apparatus, the locking mechanism is at a non-locking position. When a user operates a driving member of the toner cartridge after the toner cartridge has been attached to the image forming apparatus, the operating lever engages the locking mechanism to cause the locking mechanism to move to a locking position. When the locking mechanism is at the locking position, the locking mechanism limits the driving member to move relative to the engagement portion, so that the toner cartridge is not allowed to be detached from the image forming apparatus.
摘要:
A process for casting a pipe such as a delivery pipe with transversal holes, the pipe having an elongate longitudinal hole and at least one pair of transversal holes communicating with the longitudinal hole in a substantially normal direction thereto. The process comprises the steps of positioning a rod-like center pin for forming the longitudinal hole in a predetermined positional relation to a cavity formation surface of a casting die, positioning a pair of mandrel pins for forming the pair of transversal holes such that end faces thereof are in contact with side surfaces of the center pin, and charging molten metal into a die cavity after the center pin and the pair of mandrel pins have been positioned. The molten metal is charged under the condition that the center pin is prevented from deforming by the pair of mandrel pins.

In a method of vacuum casting molten metal sucked from a molten metal reservoir into a cavity held under a reduced pressure by opening a gate having been blocking the communication between the molten metal reservoir and the cavity, the trapping of gas and foreign matter in the cavity is effectively prevented. To this end, an accommodation space for accommodating gas and foreign matter is provided in the molten metal reservoir. The accommodation space is provided at a position from which the accommodated matter is not sucked into the cavity.

A vacuum casting apparatus of the type wherein a gate mechanism (12 and 10) is closed to form a seal. The interior of a cavity (6) is evacuated by a vacuum pump. The side of the gate mechanism (12 and 10) opposite to the cavity is filled with molten metal. The gate mechanism includes a ring-shaped groove (10e) having a V-shaped cross section positioned on the side opposite to the cavity which extends towards the sealing portion of the gate mechanism (12 and 10). With this arrangement, the molten metal in passage (8) fills the ring-shaped groove (10e) and enters the small clearance which exists in the sealing portion of the gate mechanism. The molten metal solidifies both within the ring-shaped groove (10) and this small clearance formed in the sealing portion. The resulting solidified metal piece has generally a ring shape that can be readily peeled off from the gate mechanism (12 and 10) following die release.

A charging apparatus includes a charging roller and a cleaning member. The charging roller charges a surface of an image bearing body. The cleaning member extends in a longitudinal direction parallel to the charging roller and that cleans the charging roller. The charging apparatus includes a bearing and a supporting member. The bearing supports a shaft of the charging roller. The cleaning member is mounted to the supporting member the cleaning member is held between the supporting member and the charging roller. The supporting member includes a surface to which the cleaning member is mounted, the surface being a curved surface configured to a circumferential surface of the charging roller. The supporting member includes a surface to which the cleaning member is mounted, the surface including a flat portion extending upstream with respect to rotation of the charging roller and a curved portion extending downstream.

摘要:
A target is produced inexpensively by safely incorporating an additive which is inflammable in the atmosphere. A primary alloy in a molten state is formed by adding an additive into a principal material in a low-level oxygen atmosphere, and a secondary alloy is produced by increasing the volume of the primary alloy through adding the principal material to the molten primary alloy in the atmospheric atmosphere. Since the primary alloys in the molten or solid condition are stable, it does not ignite in the atmosphere. Since the volume of the primary alloy is smaller than that of the secondary alloy, a smaller size of a vacuum chamber 11 for the formation of the first atmosphere suffices.
