Zusammenfassung: | A waste toner collector of the present invention includes: a container main body configured to collect and store waste toner; and a conveyance member configured to convey the waste toner in the container main body. The container main body is provided with, on one side wall, a plurality of protruding containing portions that protrude outward from the container main body and are disposed along a longitudinal direction of the container main body, and a plurality of recesses each positioned between adjacent ones of the protruding containing portions. The conveyance member extends along the longitudinal direction of the container main body and is rotatably disposed in the container main body. Waste toner conveyance force of the conveyance member in a rotary shaft direction varies in such a manner that, at border portions between the protruding containing portions and the recesses, the waste toner is pushed toward the protruding containing portions. |
