摘要:
A toner container for containing toner has a container main body portion, a container end portion, an aperture portion, and an extendable portion connecting the container main body portion and the container end portion. The extendable portion renders the portion capable of a relative rocking motion. The toner is discharged from the aperture portion by the relative rocking motion of the container main body portion and the container end portion.

A toner supply container detachably mountable to an image forming apparatus includes a container body with a discharge opening formed thereon. A sealing member, which unsealably seals the discharge opening, includes an engageable projection engageable with an engaging member provided in the image forming apparatus and a support for displaceably supporting the portion. The sealing member is moved relative to the container body away therefrom to unseal the discharge opening. The engageable projection is with the engaging member. A releasing projection, is provided in the supporting member, for receiving, from a releasing member provided in the image forming apparatus, a force for displacing the engageable projection in a direction of disengagement from the engaging member.
