Electrical connectors of a replaceable unit of an electrophotographic image forming device

An assembly for an electrophotographic image forming device, comprising:

• a first replaceable unit and a second replaceable unit mateable with the first replaceable unit, one of the first and second replaceable units includes a reservoir for storing toner and the other of the first and second replaceable units is configured to receive toner from said one of the first and second replaceable units when the first and second replaceable units are mated with each other, the first and second replaceable units are removably installable in the image forming device;
• an electrical connector on the first replaceable unit that is movable relative to a housing of the first replaceable unit between a first position and a second position, the electrical connector on the first replaceable unit includes an electrical contact for contacting a corresponding electrical contact in the image forming device when the electrical connector is in the second position and the first replaceable unit is installed in the image forming device;
• and
• an actuation member on the second replaceable unit positioned to contact the electrical connector and to move the electrical connector from the first position to the second position during mating of the first replaceable unit with the second replaceable unit.

• a first electrical contact on the first replaceable unit that is electrically connected to a first processing circuitry on the first replaceable unit;
• and
• a second electrical contact on the second replaceable unit that is electrically connected to a second processing circuitry on the second replaceable unit,
• wherein when the first replaceable unit is mated with the second replaceable unit, the first and second electrical contacts face each other in a spaced relationship with clearance positioned between the first and second electrical contacts permitting an electrical connector in the image forming device to pass between the first and second electrical contacts and permitting a third electrical contact of the electrical connector in the image forming device and a fourth electrical contact of the electrical connector in the image forming device positioned opposite the third electrical contact to mate with the first and second electrical contacts, respectively.
