Abstract: In a photoreceptor method and assembly for a photocopy apparatus of the type employing a flexible endless photoreceptor belt, a shuttle mechanism is located between the imaging and processing stations of the photocopy apparatus which simultaneously stores and dispenses portions of the photoreceptor belt to enable the photoreceptor belt to be stopped at the imaging station during imaging and then rapidly removed from that station at high velocity after imaging is completed, while the velocity of the photoreceptor belt at the processing station may be maintained substantially constant.

Abstract: This invention relates to a cross-mixer for a developer system of a photocopier, particularly one with a two component development system, which mixes the developer mixture (1) to assure uniform lateral distribution of the toner, (2) to assure uniform concentration of the toner mixture and (3) to triboelectrically charge the developer mixture.Adjacently offset rows of V-shaped baffles successively divide and intermix the developer mixture. Angled lifting plates interposed between successive rows of baffles scoop and lift the mixture so as to triboelectrically charge the same.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for converting an optical image into an electrostatic image replica. A vacuum tube device includes a source of electrons for propagating electrons toward an array of conductors coupling an interior surface of the vacuum tube device with an exterior surface. The accumulation of electrons on the conductor array produces an electrostatic image. The electrostatic image is determined by modulating a diffuse beam of electrons by means of the charge stored on a control grid. The charge stored on the control grid is established by secondary emission of electrons from an insulating material associated with the control grid. The electrons producing the secondary emission from the control grid originate from a photoemissive cathode are produced by the photoemissive cathode in response to an optical image applied to the cathode. The optical image applied to the photoemissive cathode is the image for which an electrostatic replica is desired.The photo-emissive cathode and the control grid are arranged so that an electron from a region of the photoemissive electrode impinges on an associated region of the control grid. By varying the accelerating potentials between the photo-emissive cathode and the control grid, thereby determining the ratio of emitted electrons to impinging electrons, a negative or a positive charge can be placed on the control grid by electrons from the photo-emissive cathode. Thus, either a positive electrostatic image master or a negative electrostatic image master of the optical image can be stored on the control grid in response to application of the optical image to the photo-emissive cathode.

Abstract: This invention relates to an toner cartridge to dispense toner to a developing system in a photocopying device. The cartridge has a primary baffle thereby forming a main chamber and a dispensing chamber. The dispensing chamber is divided into a primary dispensing chamber and a secondary dispensing chamber by a secondary baffle. Apertures are formed in the container adjacent to the secondary dispensing baffle. The cartridge is designed to be rotated in one direction to fill the secondary dispensing chamber with toner, and then rotated in an opposite direction to dispense the toner from the secondary dispensing chamber through the apertures.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for continuously converting an optical image into an electrostatic image. A vacuum tube device has a source of electrons and associated elements for propagating electronic charge toward an array of conductors coupling an interior surface of the vacuum tube device with an exterior surface of the device. The array of conductors has an extent substantially greater in a first dimension as compared to a second dimension. A photosensitive electrode, interposed between the electron source and the array of conductors modulates the passage of electrons from the source to the array. The modulation results from the presence of stored electronic charge on the electrode, the stored charge of local portion of electrode controlling the passage of electrons through apertures associated with the local portion of the electrode. The charge distribution on the photosensitive electrode can be determined by an optical image, applied to the electrode under appropriate conditions. Electron optics, associated with the vacuum tube device, focus electrons passing through the modulating electrode onto the conductor array. By focusing electrons passing through successive selected regions of the electrode on the conductor array, the charge distribution of the electrode can be scanned by the electrons passing therethrough. The array electrostatic charge, resulting from the deposition of electrons on the conductor array, can be continuously transferred to a dielectric material passing by the external surface of the conductor array. By synchronizing the passage of the dielectric material with the selected regions of the electrode, the stored electrical charge and therefore the optical image can determine an electrostatic image transferred to the dielectric material. The electrostatic image in the dielectric material can be processed and fixed by electrostatograhic techniques. Methods for locally altering the charge distribution are described.
