Abstract
This toner recovery unit is detachable installed to an image forming device, and includes a waste toner storage tank, a frame, opening/closing members, and a shift member. The frame is formed with discharge outlets and with a discharge passage which communicates those discharge outlets to the waste toner storage tank. The opening/closing members are rotated to opened positions in which they communicate the discharge outlets to the discharge passage, and to closed positions in which they interrupt such communication. And, along with the shift member shifting from an engagement release position in which its end portion does not engage with a fixing knob to an engagement position in which it engages the fixing knob, it rotates the opening/closing members from their opened positions to their closed positions.
