ELEMENT FOR INSERTING NOZZLE, CONTAINER FOR POWDER AND IMAGING DEVICE Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC G03G15/08 

FIELD: physics.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the container for powder, the element for inserting the nozzle attached to the container for powder, and the imaging device comprising a container for powder. The claimed group of inventions includes an imaging device, a container for powder and a sealing element disposed in the container for powder, which includes an opening/closing element, which moves from the closed position for closing the open section for inserting the nozzle into the opening position for opening the open section for inserting the nozzle due to the contact with the transmitting nozzle of the imaging device. The sealing element comprises: a part providing penetration, through which the opening/closing nozzle element disposed on the outer side of the transmitting nozzles, penetrates into the first conveying direction, wherein the opening/closing element moves from the opening position to the closing position; and the sliding contact surface including an inner part circle, providing penetration, which rotates against the outer circumference of the opening/closing nozzle element when joining the sliding contact with the outer circumference of the opening/closing nozzle element in the opening position. The surface of the sliding contact is formed so that the friction force between the surface of the sliding contact and the outer circumference of the opening/closing nozzle element at its inlet side in the first conveying direction, is smaller than the friction force between the surface of the sliding contact and the outer circumference of the opening/closing nozzle element at its outlet side in the first conveying direction.

EFFECT: preventing the powder cohesion by using a simple structure.
