Attaching and detaching body and image forming apparatus

1. An attaching and detaching body having an interior space which allows developer to be accommodated therein and an opening that allows the developer to be introduced into the interior space and comprising:

a main body of the attaching and detaching body that is attached to a to-be attached and detached apparatus;

a memory that stores information concerning the attaching and detaching body;

a memory support section that is provided in the main body of the attaching and detaching body and that supports the memory; and

a lid which is configured to attach to the main body of the attaching and detaching body for closing the opening of the attaching and detaching body,

wherein attaching the lid to the main body of the attaching and detaching body prevents the memory from moving in a departing direction along which the memory departs from the memory support section.

2. The attaching and detaching body according to claim 1 , wherein

the memory is supported by the memory support section via an accommodation body,

the accommodation body is supported by the memory support section in an attachable and detachable manner along the departing direction and accommodates the memory in an attachable and detachable manner from a direction different from the departing direction, and

the memory support section includes a guide section that guides the accommodation body in a movable manner in a direction aligned with the departing direction and that, when the accommodation body is attached, restricts movement of the memory accommodated in the accommodation body in a direction departing from the accommodation body.

3. An image forming apparatus comprising:

a developer accommodation container that is constructed from the attaching and detaching body according to claim 1 ; and

the to-be attached and detached apparatus that is constructed from an image forming apparatus body to which the developer accommodation container is attached in an attachable and detachable manner.

4. The attaching and detaching body according to claim 1 , wherein the memory support section has a guide part configured to guide the memory in an insertion direction of the memory.

5. The attaching and detaching body according to claim 1 , wherein the memory has a height from a surface of the main body of the attaching and detaching body gradually decreasing toward a downstream side of a rotational direction in which the attaching and detaching body is attached to the to-be attached and detached apparatus.

6. The attaching and detaching body according to claim 1 , wherein the memory is fixed to the memory support section in a snap-fit manner.

7. The attaching and detaching body according to claim 1 , wherein the memory is configured to contact with a part of the to-be attached and detached apparatus for communicating with the to-be attached and detached apparatus.

8. The attaching and detaching body according to claim 1 , wherein the main body of the attaching and detaching body has a cylinder shape, and the attaching and detaching body is fixed to a cylinder surface of the main body of the attaching and detaching body.
