ELEMENT FOR NOZZLE INSERT, CONTAINER FOR POWDER AND IMAGE FORMATION DEVICE Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC G03G15/08 

FIELD: printing.

SUBSTANCE: present invention relates to the container for powder, to the element for nozzle insert attached to the container for powder and the image formation device comprising the container for powder. The element for nozzle insert located in the container for powder comprises the open part for nozzle insert into which the supply nozzle for supply of powder delivered from the container for powder is inserted. The element for an insert of a nozzle includes the opening/closing element, the bearing element and the displacing element. The opening/closing element moves to the opening position so that to open the open part for nozzle insert by means of pressing it by means of the transferring nozzle inserted in such a way, and in the closing position so that to close open part for nozzle insert at detachment of the transferring nozzle from the element for nozzle insert. The bearing element supports the opening/closing element so that to guide the opening/closing element to the opening position and to the closing position. The bearing element is formed with the open part inside. The displacing element is provided on the bearing element and performs shift of the opening/closing element into the closing position. When powder in the container for powder is delivered into the transferring nozzle inserted into open part for nozzle insert along with rotation of the rotating conveyor located inside the container for powder, the bearing element performs rotation together with rotation of the rotating conveyor. The opening/closing element performs rotation by means of the drive energy transmission mechanism along with rotation of the bearing element. The drive energy transmission mechanism includes the extended element which is located on the opening/closing element so that to be extended in the longitudinal direction of the transporting nozzle, and it gets through the open part formed on the bearing element; the part to which the drive energy is transferred, formed on the extended element; and the part transferring the drive energy which is formed on internal surface of open part and which is configured for contact with the part transferred by the drive energy.

EFFECT: prevention of cohesion of powder due to use of simple structure.
