Claims

[Scope of Claim for Utility Model Registration] 1. A rocking mechanism for a toner collection container that rocks a toner collection container containing toner removed from a photoreceptor drum of an image forming apparatus, which is driven to rotate integrally. A drive gear that is attached to a shaft and has a plurality of gear parts of different sizes; a driven gear that has a plurality of gear parts that can each mesh with each gear part of the drive gear; and by rotation of the driven gear. a linking means linking the two to swing the toner collection container, and at least one of each gear portion of the drive gear and the driven gear is a portion in which a tooth body is not formed in each gear portion. and the parts on which the teeth of each gear part are formed are continuously arranged side by side in the circumferential direction, and the parts where the teeth are formed are continuous in the circumferential direction with each of the other gear parts. A rocking mechanism for a toner collection container characterized by interlocking. 2. A toner collection container rocking mechanism for rocking a toner collection container containing toner removed from a photoreceptor drum of an image forming apparatus, which comprises a drive gear attached to a drive shaft so as to rotate integrally with the toner collection container; , a driven gear attached to a predetermined shaft so as to continuously mesh with the driving gear, and a linking means for linking the two to swing the toner collection container by rotation of the driven gear, A rocking mechanism for a toner collection container, wherein at least one of the drive gear and the driven gear is eccentric with respect to a shaft to which it is attached. 3. A toner collection container rocking mechanism for rocking a toner collection container containing toner removed from a photoreceptor drum of an image forming apparatus, which is eccentrically attached to a drive shaft so as to rotate integrally therewith. a driving gear; a driven gear eccentrically attached to a predetermined shaft so as to mesh continuously with the driving gear; and a linking means for linking the two to swing the toner collection container by rotation of the driven gear. A rocking mechanism for a toner collection container, comprising: and at least one of the driving gear and the driven gear is an elliptical gear.
