A cartridge is configured to be attachable to a main body of an image forming apparatus and configured to receive toner supplied from a supply container. The cartridge includes a supply port configured to receive the toner supplied from the supply container, a shutter member configured to cover the supply port, and a locking member. The locking member is moved from a lock position to an unlock position to allow movement of the shutter member by using electric power supplied from the main body.

A toner container for use in an image forming device according to one example embodiment includes a body having a reservoir for holding toner. The toner container includes an electrical connector having an electrical contact for contacting a corresponding electrical contact in the image forming device when the toner container is installed in the image forming device. The electrical connector is positioned in one of a plurality of predetermined positions relative to the body corresponding to at least one of a toner color and a toner type of the toner container for limiting installation of the toner container to one of a plurality of toner container receptacles in the image forming device corresponding to at least one of the toner color and the toner type of the toner container.

Proposed are a home port and a substrate processing apparatus using the same. The home port is installed in the substrate processing apparatus to temporarily mount a nozzle for discharging a process liquid to a substrate, and includes a main body having a space therein, a nozzle holder provided at an upper portion of the main body and configured to mount the nozzle, an inclined surface formed below the nozzle holder in the space, a first supply pipe configured to discharge a rinse liquid to a tip of the nozzle, a second supply pipe configured to inject the rinse liquid into the main body, a conductive wire configured to electrically connect the inclined surface and the first supply pipe, and a first switch installed on the conductive wire.

A cartridge detachably mountable to a main assembly of an image forming apparatus includes a cartridge frame formed of a resin material; a plurality of resin members molded on the cartridge frame by injection molding of a resin material different from that of the cartridge frame; a plurality of contact surfaces, provided on the cartridge frame, to which metal molds corresponding to the resin members are to be contacted from the same side when the resin members are molded; and a plurality of resin material inlet ports, provided in an opposite side of said cartridge frame from a side where the contact surfaces are provided. The resin material has been flowed into the cartridge frame when the resin members are molded.

Systems and methods relating to accurate Channel State Information (CSI) measurements for a License Assisted Secondary Cell (LA SCell) are disclosed herein. An exemplary user equipment enabled includes a transceiver, at least one processor, and memory containing instructions executable by the at least one processor whereby the user equipment operates to detect whether a downlink control information (DCI) message indicating that a Channel State Information Reference Symbol (CSI-RS) transmission from an LA SCell of the user equipment is present in a subframe. When the user equipment detects that the DCI message indicates that a CSI-RS transmission from the LA SCell is present in the subframe, it processes a CSI-RS measurement. When the user equipment detects that the DCI message does not indicate that a CSI-RS transmission from the LA SCell is present in the subframe, it refrains from processing the CSI-RS measurement.

An image forming apparatus includes a casing, a door, first and second switching portions, an interlocking portion, and an operating portion. The first switching portion is switched to a first state in which the door is rotatable from a closed position to a first opened position and a second state in which the door is rotatable from the first opened position to a second opened position. The second switching portion is switched to a third state in which the door is rotatable from the closed position to the first opened position and a fourth state in which the door is rotatable from the first opened position to the second opened position. The interlocking portion interlocks the first and second switching portions. The operating portion switches the first switching portion to the first and second states, and switches the second switching portion to the third and fourth states.

An image forming apparatus includes an image forming unit, a casing, a door, a guide portion, a swing member, a regulation portion, and an operating portion. The guide portion includes a first area where the door is rotatable from the closed position to the first opened position, and a second area where the door is rotatable from a position where the door is opened more than the first opened position to the second opened position. The regulation portion switches a regulating state where the guided portion is regulated from moving from the first area to the second area, and an allowable state where the guided portion is allowed to move from the first area to the second area. When the guided portion is positioned at the second area in the regulating state, the regulation portion allows the guided portion to move from the second area to the first area.

A toner case includes a case main body and an agitator. The case main body stores a toner. The agitator rotates around a rotation axis extending along one direction and agitates the toner stored in the case main body. The case main body includes a curve and a recess. The curve is curved in an arc shape around the rotation axis. The recess is recessed from the curve toward a side remote from the rotation axis. In a state where the agitator is in a first rotating position, a part of the agitator comes into contact with an inner circumferential face of the curve so that the part of the agitator is in a bent state. In a state where the agitator is in a second rotating position, the part of the agitator is inserted into the recess.
