In a transport case for transport of at least one high value, heavy transport goods, a floor is provided on which an object carrier is arranged on an inside of the case such that it can be displaced in a direction of a longitudinal axis of the case. At least one cover is connected with the floor with at least one hinge such that it can be folded over and the cover can be opened such that the transport good is freely accessible parallel to the longitudinal axis in an opened state of the transport case.

In a method or system to produce a locking connection between a toner reservoir and a cover sealing the toner reservoir, first and second locking units are provided that are locked with one another after sealing the toner reservoir with the cover. The first locking unit is arranged at an inside of the cover and the second locking unit is arranged on an outside of the toner reservoir. At least one of the two locking units has a run-in slope over which the other locking unit slides.

In an arrangement to convey toner from a toner bottle of a toner reservoir into a toner receiving container, the toner bottle has a cover to close an output opening thereof. The cover has an upper cover part to accept the toner bottle and a lower cover part to close the outlet opening. A first locking unit provided within the cover arresting the lower cover part to the upper cover part such that it cannot be displaced before placement of the toner reservoir onto the toner receiving container. The cover is receivable on the toner receiving container so that the outlet opening of the toner reservoir is positioned above a filling opening of the toner receiving container. A slider has an outlet opening, the slider closing or opening the filling opening of the toner receiving container. The slider has an unlocking unit that unlocks the first locking unit upon placement of the toner reservoir on the toner receiving container so that the lower cover part is no longer arrested to the upper cover part. The lower cover part and the slider have a latching unit that engages in an active connection upon placement of the toner reservoir onto the toner receiving container so that the lower cover part moves with movement of the slider.

In a method or device for dosing toner material in an electrophotographic printer or copier, toner material is introduced into at least one bucket chamber rotatably arranged in an opening at a bottom of a toner reservoir. The bucket chamber has a paddle wheel which seals the opening of the toner reservoir. As the paddlewheel rotates, toner material in the bucket chamber is conveyed into a region. The toner material conveyed from the paddlewheel is further conveyed with a screw conveyor. Also a toner reservoir is provided having a toner removal opening shaped to accommodate at least a portion of a paddlewheel.

In a method and device to separate toner material and air from a toner material-air mixture, and first operating phase at toner material-air mixture is supplied to a filter so that air flows through the filter in a first direction. In a second operating phase, the flow of air through the filter in a first direction is interrupted such that toner material deposited on the filter is loosened. In a second operating phase, air flows through the filter in a direction approximately opposite to the first direction. Also in a method device for dosing toner material in an electrophotographic printer or copier, toner material is introduced into at least one bucket chamber rotatably arranged in an opening at a bottom of a toner reservoir. The bucket chamber has a paddle wheel which seals the opening of the toner reservoir. As the paddlewheel rotates, toner material in the bucket chamber is conveyed into a region. The toner material conveyed from the paddlewheel is further conveyed with a screw conveyor. Also a toner reservoir is provided having a toner removal opening shaped to accommodate at least a portion of a paddlewheel.

In an arrangement and method for determining a position of a unit in an electrophotographic printer or copier, a sensor arrangement is provided having two sensors and an actuating element. Each sensor outputs a sensor signal dependent on a position of the actuating element, the position of the actuating element with respect to the sensors changing dependent on a position of the unit. In a first position of the unit, the actuating element is positioned such that the first sensor and the second sensor each output a first sensor signal. In a second position of the unit the actuating element is positioned such that the first sensor outputs a second sensor signal and the second sensor outputs the first sensor signal. In a third position of the unit the actuating element is positioned such that the first sensor and the second sensor each output the second sensor signal. In a fourth position of the unit the actuating element is positioned such that the first sensor outputs the first sensor signal and the second sensor outputs the second sensor signal.

A method of conveying toner material from a refill container is provided, wherein a refill container having an opening for the discharge of toner material is arranged in a receptacle device in a first substantially upright position. In this first position, the opening is closed by a closing device. The refill container is swiveled into the second position with bottom opening with the aid of the receptacle device. Toner material is taken from the refill container via a discharge opening provided in the closing device. Further, the invention relates to a device for conveying toner material and to an associated toner refill container.
