ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates a particle carrying device wherein a carrying passage can be detachably installed onto a toner particle collection unit for storing wasted particles, without dropping the particles. According to the particle carrying device, when the carrying passage is attached onto a particle container, a shutter provided on the carrying passage is moved. Then, a guide member stored in the carrying passage is moved and an opening provided in the carrying passage is opened. Noteover, as a carrying auger rotatably supported in the carrying passage rotates, the waste particles are carried toward the particle container through the opening. On the other hand, when the carrying passage is detached from the particle container, the guide member is moved back into the carrying pipe, and the opening is shut. Further, the shutter moves so as to shield the opening and maintain the guide member in the closed position, so that the particles are prevented from dropping out of the opening.
