  • Patent number: 11513469
    Abstract: Power receiving unit and process cartridge are provided. The power receiving unit of a process cartridge is detachably mounted in an image formation apparatus configured with a power output unit that is swingable. An outer circumference of the power output unit contains a recessed portion, and the power receiving unit is engaged with the power output unit to receive a driving force. The power receiving unit includes a protrusion. The protrusion is disposed inside the power receiving unit. The protrusion is engaged with the recessed portion of the power output unit to receive the driving force. When the power receiving unit moves along an axial direction thereof and is in a contact engagement with the power output unit, the protrusion abuts against a front end of the power output unit to cause the power output unit to be tilted and swung.

  • Patent number: 10317838
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a toner cartridge. The toner cartridge can be removably mounted in an electronic imaging device via a rotatable toner cartridge guide rail configured in the electronic imaging device. The toner cartridge includes a locating column, disposed and movable at one side of the toner cartridge. The locating column is supported by the toner cartridge guide rail and rotates the toner cartridge guide rail when the locating column is moved by an external force. The toner cartridge also includes an inspection device, having a trigger switch and disposed in the electronic imaging device. When the toner cartridge guide rail is rotated in response to the external force on the locating column, the toner cartridge guide rail touches the trigger switch and turns on the trigger switch.
