摘要： In such a manner that ink in each of a plurality of pressure chambers for holding the ink therein is brought to a positive pressure state of being ejected from respective nozzles respectively communicating with the respective chambers to the outside of each of the pressure chambers, a cleaning member abutted against a nozzle plate formed with a plurality of nozzles is moved along the nozzles in a state in which pressure is applied to all of the pressure chambers, to thereby extrude foreign particles outside the pressure chambers by the ink ejected from the respective nozzles to the outside of the pressure chambers, thereby making it possible to recover the ink, whereby the occurrence of a delivery failure due to the foreign particles around the nozzles being absorbed into the pressure chambers, can be prevented, and the foreign particles contained in the ink can be purged without consuming much ink needlessly.

摘要： An ink jet head cleaning apparatus is provided which includes a wiping unit which performs a wiping operation for a nozzle surface of an ink jet head and a suction unit which performs a sucking operation for the nozzle surface. An operation OFF condition of the wiping unit and an operation OFF condition of the suction unit is detected, and the wiping unit and the suction unit are actuated selectively in accordance with the operation OFF condition thus detected. If an elapsed time after the wiping operation is longer than a first predetermined time, the wiping unit is actuated, and if an elapsed time after the sucking operation is longer than a second predetermined time, the suction unit is actuated. The first predetermined time is longer than the second predetermined time.

摘要： As an image forming apparatus of this invention, a color copying machine in which four image forming units are juxtaposed along the convey direction of a paper sheet is known. Each image forming unit has a photosensitive drum which is in rolling contact with a conveyor belt. Around the photosensitive drum, a charging device, exposure device, developing device, transfer device, cleaning device, and charge removing device are placed in turn along the rotation direction of the drum. An image unit is interposed between the photosensitive drum in the predetermined image forming unit, and the photosensitive drum in the image forming unit, which neighbors that image forming unit on its upstream side. The image unit integrally holds the developing device for developing an electrostatic latent image formed on the downstream photosensitive drum, and the cleaning device for cleaning the upstream photosensitive drum. Also, the image unit is detachably inserted between the two neighboring photosensitive drums.

摘要： A color printer comprises first and second photo-conductive drums which are supported between first and second supporting plates substantially in parallel to each other. Rotational shafts of the drums are attached to the first supporting plates through first and second supporting members and to the second supporting plates through a third and fourth supporting members. The first supporting member has a first driving force transmission shaft for rotating a rotational shaft of the first drum, and a first pivot bearing member rotatably supporting the first driving force transmission shaft. The second supporting member has a second driving force transmission shaft for rotating a rotational shaft of the second drum, and a second pivot bearing member rotatably supporting the second driving force transmission shaft. The third supporting member has a third pivot bearing member rotatably supporting the rotational shaft of the first drum. The fourth supporting member has a fourth pivot bearing member rotatably supporting the rotational shaft of the second drum. The first and second transmission shafts have distal ends which are engageable with the third and fourth pivot bearing members, respectively.
