摘要:
A rotary developing device incorporated in image forming equipment has a plurality of developing units rotatably mounted on a rotary shaft and rotating the developing units for sequentially developing latent images electrostatically formed on an image carrier at a developing position where the developing units sequentially face the image carrier. First side plates are formed integrally at least with the rotary shaft. Partitions extend radially away from said rotary shaft for separating said developing units from one another. Second side plates are respectively removably mounted on the first side plates. At least a developer carrier included in each of the developing units and a member also included in the developing unit and contacting or adjoining the developer carrier in a predetermined positional relation are mounted on the second side plates.

A developing device using a one-component developer or toner and applicable to image forming equipment for supplying the developer to a photoconductive element disposed above the device. The device supplies a desired amount of toner to a toner supply roller and a developing roller at all times with no regard to the position thereof, thereby insuring stable images. Further, the device enhances free layout of the equipment and occupies a minimum of sectional area relative to the photoconductive element.

A joint having an OLDHAM state coupling at a leading edge thereof is held movably in a direction which is parallel to a joint axis at a full-color printer body. A coupling gear is substantially connected to a developing roller disposed in each mono-color developing unit, which makes up a revolving type developing device. At the time of developing by one of the mono-color developing units, the joint is capable of moving in parallel to the axis of the joint in the state of being rotated toward the coupling. A projection is further provided at the leading edge of the coupling, and a claw is further provided at the end of the coupling gear. Thereby, smooth engagement between the coupling gear and the coupling is made by the help of the OLDHAM state coupling, the projection and the claw. As a result, the driving force is transmitted from the joint to the developing roller disposed in the developing unit, so that the developing roller can rotate at a predetermined speed and direction.
摘要:
A revolver type developing device for an image forming apparatus. A rotary body is mounted on a shaft and has a plurality of developing units mounted thereon. The developing units are arranged around the shaft, and each stores a powdery developer and accommodates a developer transport member for supplying the developer to an image carrier. A drive source rotates the rotary body to bring any one of the developing units to a developing position where the developing unit faces the image carrier. A one-way transmission mechanism is located on a drive transmission path extending from the drive source to the rotary body for preventing a drive force from being imparted from the rotary body to the drive source. When the rotary body tends to rotate or vibrate due to an external force or vibration, the rotation or vibration is prevented from reaching the drive source.

A rotary developing device for color image forming equipment has a plurality of developing units around a common rotary shaft and rotates the developing units about the common shaft to bring any one of them to a developing position. A drive connecting and disconnecting device in the form of a clutch is provided integrally with each developing unit and sets up and interrupts drive transmission from a drive source to only one of the developing units.

A toner container includes a cylindrical container body, a cap having a toner outlet, and a shutter. The cap includes a primary positioning primary positioning hole, formed in a top front surface perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the toner container, extending in the longitudinal direction, to determine an installation position of the cap relative to the image forming apparatus, a secondary positioning hole, formed in a bottom front surface perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the toner container, extending in the longitudinal direction forward the toner outlet, to subsidiary determine the installation position of the cap, and a first restriction member to position the cap in a horizontal direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, projecting vertically upward from an outer circumferential surface of the cap and symmetrical about a virtual perpendicular line passing through a cross-sectional center position of the primary positioning hole perpendicular to the longitudinal direction.

A toner container that is detachably attached to a main body of an image forming apparatus such that a longitudinal direction of the toner container is parallel to a horizontal direction is provided. The toner container includes: a cylindrical container body that has an opening on one end, and is configured to convey toner inside the body toward the opening; a cap portion into which the opening of the container body is inserted, and which includes a toner outlet at a bottom portion for discharging toner discharged from the opening of the container body to the outside of the toner container in a vertically downward direction; and a shutter member that is held on the bottom portion of the cap portion, and moves along an outer periphery of the cap portion to open and close the toner outlet. The cap portion is formed by integral molding.

In a method of manufacturing a ball grid array (BGA) semiconductor package, micro balls are mounted onto a respective plurality of through-holes formed in a substrate, and a semiconductor device is mounted on a die pad portion of the substrate. The semiconductor device and the micro balls are electrically connected with bonding wires. The semiconductor device, the die pad portion, the bonding wires, and parts of the micro balls are sealed together with an insulating resin to form an encapsulation member. The encapsulation member and the substrate are then cut into individual BGA semiconductor packages.

A system with a container including a protrusion, and a receiver to receive the container. The receiver includes a slide block that is movable relative to a body of the receiver, the slide block including two surfaces, a first surface, initially contacted by the protrusion of the container during insertion of the container into the receiver, having a first slope to resist movement of the container towards the receiver, and a second surface, subsequently contacted by the protrusion of the container during the insertion of the container into the receiver, having a second slope to interact with the protrusion of the container to assist movement of the container towards the receiver. This construction provides the user with a changing insertion force to indicate proper mounting of the container.
