摘要:
A toner of the invention includes toner particles comprising a styrene acrylate binder and at least one colorant, and wherein the toner particles, in the absence of external additives, have a mean circularity of from about 0.94 to about 0.98 and a particle size distribution with a lower number ratio geometric standard deviation (GSD) of approximately 1.28 to approximately 1.31 and an upper volume GSD of approximately 1.24 to approximately 1.27. Also included is a set of toners for forming a color image, comprising a cyan toner, a magenta toner, a yellow toner and a black toner, wherein each of the cyan toner, the magenta toner, the yellow toner and the black toner, wherein each of about 70 to about 95% by weight, dry basis, of a styrene acrylate binder, about 5 to about 15% by weight, dry basis, of a wax dispersion, and at least one colorant.

摘要:
An improvement for use in a fine particle delivery system that separates particulate material according to particle size, such as a toner screener used in an electrophotographic imaging machine. The fine particle delivery system includes an intake duct that receives particulate material, a screen that filters the materials as the particles move or rotate about the screen, and a pair of opposed ultrasonic transducer assemblies that excite the screen to dislodge particulate material adhering to the screen mesh. Each transducer assembly includes a transducer, a rigid metallic membrane coupled to transducer to efficiently deliver ultrasonic waves to the screen, and a mounting mechanism that supports the transducer assembly. A channel embedded with the mounting mechanism protects electrical wiring the powers the transducer from a potentially explosive environment of particulate material during screening operations. The mounting mechanism also provides convenient retrofitting of the transducer assembly with existing particulate screening systems or a pivotal mounting connection with a frame of the particulate delivery system to provide a screen removal clearance for servicing.
