    摘要: A light beam position detecting device detects the passage positions of a plurality of light beams for scanning the surface of a photosensitive drum. The light beam position detecting device has a sensor pattern for generating an output which is continuously changed in a wide range with a variation in the passage position of the light beam in a sub-scanning direction perpendicular to a main scanning direction of the light beam. The sensor pattern precisely detects the relative scanning position of the light beam in a wide range. The passage positions of the plurality of light beams for scanning the surface of the photosensitive drum are controlled to a preset position based on the output of the sensor pattern.

    摘要: An image forming apparatus includes image forming units to transfer images onto an image receiving medium that is moved in a specified direction together with a conveyor belt which conveys the image receiving medium. The image forming units of the apparatus form test patterns on the conveyor belt or the image receiving medium. The test patterns include a leading edge and a trailing edge along the specified direction defining a distance therebetween, the distance varying continuously. The apparatus further includes a first detector for detecting the timing of the leading edge and the trailing edge of a test pattern crossing the first detector downstream of the image forming units, a second detector for detecting a shift of an image formed by the image forming units from a proper position based on the difference in the detected timings from the leading edge to the trailing edge of the test pattern detected by the first detector, and a correction unit for correcting a shift of an image formed by the image forming units based on the shifted position of the image detected by the second detector.

    摘要: In an apparatus for adjusting the intensity of a light beam, the light beam from a semiconductor laser is deflected to scan a photosensitive drum and is detected to generate a positional signal by a photodetector outside of the drum. The intensity of the light beam is also detected by a monitor detector and compared with a predetermined value. The comparison result is latched in a latch circuit in accordance with the positional signal and the semiconductor laser is controlled depending on the latched comparison result.

    摘要: In a digital copying machine using a multi-beam optical system, a light beam position detector situated on a line extended from the surface of a photosensitive drum detects the passing position of each light beam scanned by a polygon mirror rotated by a polygon motor. A CPU calculates control amounts for galvanomirrors by using a beam position detector output processor, on the basis of the detection result of the beam position detector. Based on the calculated control amounts, galvanomirror drive circuits drive the galvanomirrors, thereby to control the positions of the beams in a sub-scan direction. The passing positions of the beams can be precisely detected with no special precision in assembling the optical system. In addition, the positions of the beams in the sub-scan direction can be controlled at predetermined positions, even if some change occurs in the structure of the optical system due to a variation in ambience or a variation with the passing of time.
