摘要:
An electrographic printer with a printing unit that comprises a photoconductor provided with a toner image during the printing process and which further comprises a corona device arranged at a distance from the photoconductor that generates an electrical field during the printing process for transferring the toner image onto an endless carrier material is provided. The printer, in a first operating mode, can print a first web section of the endless carrier material conducted along a transport path and, in a second operating mode, can simultaneously print a second web section conducted along a parallel transport path and arranged next to the first web section at a distance therefrom. The length of the electrical field generated by the corona device is adjustable according to whether a first web section or a first and second web section is transported along the transport path.

A printing station includes pins for engaging into edge perforations of continuous paper. The pins are mounted on a toothed belt at the gaps between the belt teeth. A two part pin mounting has a portion engaged between the teeth of the belt.

In a thermal fixing system for fixing toner images on the front side of a recording medium in an electrographic printer or copier device, the back side of the recording medium already having a fixed toner image. The thermal fixing means contains a heat transfer fixing station that fixes the toner images on the recording medium, and contains a pre-heating saddle that precedes the heat transfer fixing station in a running direction of the recording medium. A sliding surface that accepts the recording medium over its back side is allocated to the pre-heating saddle. The sliding surface is constructed of a toner-repellant material at least in a contact region with the recording medium. A separating device can separate the recording medium from the saddle.

An electrophotographic printer for printing on front & rear sides of reel paper has an electro-thermally operating fixing station (23) with a heated fixing roller (86) and a feed roller (87) which can be pivoted between at least one position against the fixing roller and another position away from the fixing roller. With the aid of an unheated, pivoting paper guide saddle (93), the reel paper is guided around the fixing roller (86) at a predeterminable wrapping angle (U) for the purpose of preheating before the actual fixing. In order to fix the printed image on the reel paper (12) in an offset-free and smudge-free manner during the starting and stopping process, the movements of the elements of the fixing station (23) and the transport of the paper are coordinated in such a way that there is no relative movement between the fixing roller (86) and toner image on the reel paper (12) when the reel paper is placed against the fixing roller (86) and when the reel paper (12) is stripped off the fixing roller ( 86).
摘要:
A method and apparatus for an electrographic printer or copier provides a first layer of toner particles is deposited on a first toner receiving surface by a force field. The amount of toner actually applied is detected at at least one point in the first layer. The force field is modified according to changes in the actual amount of toner from the predetermined amount of toner.
摘要:
A printer or copier and method generates toner images for transfer onto a recording medium. A latent charge image is generated on a photoconductor and is developed by the application of toner by at least one developer station to generate the toner image for transfer to the recording medium. A plurality of the developer stations are provided along the photoconductor to develop the images in color using a color separation method. A transfer band collects the color separations on top of one another to generate the overall toner image which is transferred to the recording medium. Multiple modules, each with developer stations, a photoconductor and a transfer band may be provided for one sided or two sided printing.

For transporting finely powdered toner material from a reservoir to a delivery opening, a porous bed that forms a down grade is charged with compressed air proceeding from below, whereby the toner material mixes with air to form a liquid-like mixture. This mixture flows along the down grade from the reservoir to the delivery opening.

In order to fix the printed image on the reel paper (12) in an offset-free and smudge-free manner during the starting and stopping process, the movements of the elements of the fixing station (23) and the transport of the paper are coordinated in such a way that there is no relative movement between the fixing roller (86) and toner image on the reel paper (12) when the reel paper is placed against the fixing roller (86) and when the reel paper (12) is stripped off the fixing roller (86). The printer also has a pivoting print transfer station and a paper dividing device separately pivotable from the print transfer station.

A variable piston arrangement is provided which is especially adapted for use in roll and bread dividing and shaping machines and includes one or more separate pistons each selectively and operably arranged in a single piston-housing used to size and shape baking dough to predetermined specifications. The piston-housing itself is disposed in a separate housing and as such may function as a separate piston in the following manner. Each of the separate pistons and piston-housing are arranged and controlled so that at least partial removal or withdrawal of one or more of the separate pistons from the piston-housing or withdrawal of the piston-housing from the separate housing will produce a predetermined vacated area or space which conforms to the size and shape of the rolls or bread to be baked. The predetermined area vacated by the one or more separate pistons or piston-housing may be varied in size and shape, as desired, so that a single variable piston arrangement may take the place of multiple piston-housing arrangements required in operating conventional roll and bread dividing and shaping machines used in dividing and shaping rolls and breads of different sizes and shapes.
摘要:
A pressure device for applying pressure to a web-like image-receiving material, such as a continuous paper web in the transfer station of a non-mechanical printer or copier, has a C-shaped pressure bar which extends over the width of the image-receiving material and is open on a side adjacent to the image-receiving material and which is pivotable about a point disposed above the pressure bar, and a solenoid having a movable plunger which is connected via a linkage to a pin carried on the rear of the pressure plate such that when the solenoid is in a normal rest condition the pressure bar is forced against the image-receiving material such that the image-receiving material presses against the surface of a rotating intermediate image carrier having an electrostatically held toner image thereon for transferring the image to the image-receiving material. When the solenoid is actuated, the plunger retracts thereby pulling the pressure bar away from the image-receiving material by rotating the pressure bar about its pivot point. The pressure bar may also include an eccentric disc having a pin engaging the linkage so that the movement of the pressure bar is retarded as the pressure bar moves toward or away from the image-receiving material.
