  • Patent number: 11768448
    Abstract: A toner container includes a container body, an opening, a cover, a toner discharge port, a shutter, a cylindrical structure, protrusions, and an identifier. The shutter is attached to the cover and includes a main shutter covering the toner discharge port. The main shutter moves between a closed position to close the toner discharge port and an open position to open the toner discharge port. The protrusions are on both sides of the cover and protrude in a direction orthogonal to a toner container mounting direction. The identifier is on the cover to indicate a toner color. The cylindrical structure's leading end is downstream of leading ends of the protrusions in the mounting direction. The main shutter's leading end is downstream of the protrusions' leading ends in the mounting direction when the main shutter is in the closed position. The protrusions are downstream of the identifier in the mounting direction.

  • Patent number: 11713559
    Abstract: Disclosed is a hydraulic control apparatus including a flow-path selector valve that switches a supply flow path and a flow-path switching control unit that operates the same, a regeneration valve and a regeneration release valve capable of the regenerative operation, and a regeneration control unit that operates the same. The flow-path switching control unit makes the flow-path selector valve form a flow-path providing communication between first and second pumps in a combined operation state. The regeneration control unit judges the propriety of the regenerative operation on the basis of the second pump pressure which is the discharge pressure of the second pump in a single operation state and judges the propriety of the regenerative operation on the basis of whether or not the driving state of the work actuator is within an allowable range corresponding to the target work operation amount in the combined operation state.
