Definitions

the invention relates to a toner refill container for copying and printing devices with a mouthpiece which can be inserted into a filler neck of the respective device and has a closure.
a refill container of the above type is known, in which the principle known from refill cartridges for other purposes, ie for example refill cartridges for fountain pens, is used, according to which a refill cartridge side membrane is destroyed or moved out of its closed position by a device-side mandrel.
the disadvantage of such N ach Stahliters is that either the device-side toner container must be converted or that the use of particular the serving for opening the refill mandrel having intermediate piece is unavoidable.
the invention has for its object to provide a particularly simple toner refill container which can be inserted directly into the filler neck of known copying and printing devices without an adapter and which can still be handled comfortably.
closure from a or tearable film which is connected to at least one tearing or tearing cord, which, when the mouthpiece protrudes into the filler neck, is guided along the latter from the filler neck and can be actuated outside the same.
the toner refill container according to the invention has the advantage that it can be closed after filling in a particularly economical manner, namely by heat sealing. It is easy to use and there is no need to use special filler necks or intermediate elements. The risk of contamination for the operator is considerably reduced, in particular compared to solutions in which intermediate pieces have to be used.
1 is a toner refill container which has a coupling ring 2 and a mouthpiece 3 adjoining it.
the opening 4 of the mouthpiece 3 is le in the case of Figure 1 diglich still partially covered by a film 5, which is connected to a tear or A b tear strand 6, which allows the film 5 to be removed from the mouthpiece edge 7 of the mouthpiece 3.
the tearing or tearing strand 6 passes through a guide channel 8.
a towing eye 9 is arranged.
10 is the coupling web, which allows a bayonet lock connection of the coupling ring with a correspondingly designed filler neck of a printing or copying machine.
a coupling ring 12 surrounds a mouthpiece 13 in a collar-like manner.
the tear-off or tear-off strand also denoted here by 6, first passes through a gap 14 between the coupling ring 12 and the mouthpiece 13 and then arrives through a guide channel 15 Outside.
FIG. 3 shows a toner refill container 16 with a guide channel 18 extending through a coupling ring 17 and part of the wall adjoining this wall. It can be seen that by actuating the tearing or tearing cord 6 in the direction of arrow 19, the film 5 can be easily removed from the edge 7 of the mouthpiece 20. In order to make it easier to pull off, the edge of the mouthpiece 7 assumes an angle d with respect to the longitudinal axis of the toner refill container 16. It is possible that the mouthpiece edge 7 is formed by parts of a curved surface instead of parts on an inclined plane. By a Appropriate shaping of the edge of the mouthpiece can influence the ease of pulling off the film 5.
the coupling ring 17 is inserted directly into the filler neck 22 of the toner container 23 of a printing device.
