摘要:
Disclosed herein is a technique of removing metal contained in a solution through chelation, which makes it possible to preclude undesired aggregation and permit effective aggregation through an aggregating process. A surface active agent containing a hydrophobic group, a hydrophilic group and a chelating group is added to the solution to be processed, and subsequently an aggregating process is carried out. The chelating group chelates metal, the hydrophilic group prevents undesired aggregation, and the hydrophobic group is effectively aggregated in the aggregating process. Various uses are possible by selecting the charge of ligand.
摘要:
An apparatus for removing metal contained in a solution through chelation which includes a means for adding a surface active agent containing a hydrophobic group, a hydrophilic group and a chelating group to a metal containing solution held within a metal solution accommodating means. An electric field applying means is adapted to apply an electric field to the solution containing means and further means is provided for separating an aggregate from the metal contained solution.

A developer supply container includes a developer accommodating portion configured to accommodate a developer, a discharge opening configured and positioned to permit discharging of the developer from the developer accommodating portion, and a driving force receiving portion configured and positioned to receive a driving force. In addition, a pump portion is capable of being driven by the driving force to alternately change an internal pressure of the developer accommodating portion between a pressure lower than an ambient pressure and a pressure higher than the ambient pressure to discharge the developer through the discharge opening.

A developer supply container is detachably mountable to a developer receiving apparatus, which includes a driving gear. The container includes a developer containing portion; a rotatable discharging member provided in the containing portion to discharge the developer when the container is positioned at a developer discharging position; and a drive receiving member engageable with the driving gear for rotating the discharging member; a regulating portion for regulating a mounting attitude of the container relative to the apparatus so as to prevent an engagement between the drive receiving member and the driving gear, and thereafter the drive receiving member is revolvable in a setting direction to a set position where the drive receiving member is engageable with the driving gear. The drive receiving member is loaded to retard the rotation thereof so as to rotate the container from the set position to the developer discharging position in the setting direction by a rotational force received by the drive receiving member from the driving gear.

A toner container detachably mountable to an image forming apparatus includes a main body for containing toner, a toner discharging portion having an opening, and a coupling member. The coupling member includes an extended portion. The extended portion includes an engaging projection. The engaging projection is configured and positioned to displace in an inward direction with the extended portion as the engaging projection enters a hollow cylindrical driving member of an assembly of the image forming apparatus, and is also configured and positioned to engage with a slot of the hollow cylindrical driving member when the extended portion elastically restores in an outward direction. The engaging projection includes a tapered surface portion configured and positioned to receive a force for displacing in the inward direction with the extended portion as the engaging projection enters the hollow cylindrical driving member, and a side surface portion.

A developer supply container is detachably mountable to a developer receiving apparatus having a receiving opening for receiving a developer and a shutter for opening and closing the receiving opening. The developer supply container including an engaging portion provided on a periphery of the developer supply container, and is engageable with the shutter to open and close the shutter with a rotational movement of either the developer supply container mounted in the developer receiving apparatus or a rotatable container body; and a cleaning member, provided on a periphery of the developer supply container for cleaning the shutter with the rotational movement of the developer supply container.
摘要:
A sealing member for sealing a toner discharge opening of a toner accommodating container detachably mountable to an image forming apparatus, the sealing member includes a locking portion for being locked with a portion to be locked provided in the image forming apparatus, the locking portion being adapted to displace with a relative closing movement relative to the portion to be locked, wherein the toner discharging opening is brought into an open state from a closed state by relative to movement of the sealing member relative to the toner accommodating container with the locking portion being in engagement with the portion to be locked; and a releasing force receiving portion for receiving from the image forming apparatus a releasing force for releasing engagement between the locking portion and the portion to be locked by displacing the locking portion.
