Abstract:
A set battery which generates a high voltage comprises a number of battery modules connected to each other in series. A module voltage of each of the battery modules is detected by a corresponding differential voltage detecting circuit and is transmitted to an A/D convertor. Each of Several voltage detecting blocks is constituted by a plurality of the differential voltage detecting circuits for detecting module voltages of a plurality of the battery modules contiguous to each other. Each of the differential voltage detecting circuits belonging to the same voltage detecting block is applied with a common reference potential which is used to detect the module voltage. The reference potential is set to values which differ from each other for the respective voltage detecting blocks.

Abstract:
A contact charging member to be abutted against a charge-receiving member and supplied with a voltage for charging the charge-receiving member is provided. The charging member includes an electroconductive substrate, an elastic layer and a surface layer disposed in lamination. The surface layer comprises crosslinked polymer crosslinked by irradiation with an electron beam. The surface layer may preferably be in the form of a seamless tube formed of the crosslinked polymer. The surface layer crosslinked by electron beam irradiation is less liable to suffer from transfer of a crosslinking agent or a decomposition product thereof to the charge-receiving member. Accordingly, the charging member shows improved durability and stably uniform charging ability suitable for electrophotographic image formation under various environmental conditions.
