Abstract
A container for a toner cartridge includes a hollow main body defining a longitudinal central axis. The main body has a rear end, a front end with an opening, an inner circumference, a first section with a first guiding surface at the inner circumference, a second section with a second guiding surface at the inner circumference, a connecting section between the first section and the second section, and a guiding rib disposed at the inner circumference. The first guiding surface defines with the central axis a distance gradually increasing toward the opening and the second guiding surface defines with the central axis a distance gradually increasing toward the opening. The guiding rib extends from the first section to the second section via the connecting section and is unparallel to the central axis. The container has the advantages of being easy in manufacturing and hard to deform.
