(Example) As shown in FIG. 1, the present invention includes a sealing member 1, a toner storage container 2 (hereinafter referred to as container 2), an adhesive sheet member 5 (hereinafter referred to as sheet member 5), and a sheet member 5. It is composed of a rotatable core 6 (hereinafter referred to as core 6) that is wound around and toner 4, and 3 is a developing unit of an apparatus that performs an electrophotographic process (hereinafter referred to as developing unit 3).

, point A in the figure is the point where the seal member 1 heat-welded to the container 2 is pulled apart in the direction of the arrow in the figure, and point B is the point where the seal member 1 and the sheet member 2 are separated from each other. This is because the adhered toner 9 is sandwiched by being pressed and bonded by the roller 7 and lower roller 8. As shown in this figure, the adhered toner was sealed between the seal member 1 and the sheet member 20, and there was no contamination due to falling toner.

以下本発明の効果を実証する為に行なった実験を示す。Experiments conducted to demonstrate the effects of the present invention will be shown below.

A Macbeth densitometer was used to compare the sealing member of a conventional toner cartridge, in which an adhesive sheet member was applied after peeling off, and the sealing member of the cartridge of the present invention, in which an adhesive sheet member was applied at the same time as peeling off. , reflection density (
OD value) was measured. Experimental results (densitometer values) were measured 5 times each.
