Developer container, developer supplying device, and image forming apparatus

A toner bottle, comprising:

• a main body including means for guiding toner when the main body rotates;
• an opening of the bottle;
• and
• a gear proximate to the opening, the gear oriented to rotate the toner bottle around an axis of rotation;
• and
• an intermediate area located between the main body and the opening, the intermediate area including a means for guiding the toner when the intermediate area rotates, an angle of the means for guiding of the main body relative to the axis of rotation being larger than an angle of the means for guiding of the intermediate area, both the angle of the means for guiding toner of the main body and the angle of the means for guiding toner of the intermediate area being acute angles,
• wherein the gear is disposed between the opening and the main body, and
• wherein the gear is disposed between the opening and the intermediate area.
