摘要:
The heat fixing apparatus includes a fixing heater and a pressure roller. The fixing heater has a plurality of resistance-type heat generation layers which are different in heat distribution in the longitudinal direction perpendicular to the direction of conveying a recording material. The recording material P is heated when passed through a fixing nip portion formed between the fixing heater and the pressure roller. The pressurization conditions between the fixing heater and the pressure roller can be changed. The heat fixing apparatus includes a fixing member which adjusts the lengthwise heat distribution of the fixing heater by changing the applied current proportion of the plurality of resistance-type heat generation layers according to the pressurization conditions between the fixing heater and the pressure roller.

A carbon nanotube aggregate and a method for forming a carbon nanotube aggregate are provided. The carbon nanotube aggregate can be formed by treating carbon nanotubes with fluorine gas and sintering the resulting fluorinated carbon nanotubes. A carbon nanotube aggregate can be formed which does not contain a binder or resin matrix.

摘要:
This invention aims to develop a chitin oligomer composition and/or a chitosan oligomer composition wherein the content of an oligomer from a trimer to a decamer is 60% or more, and to develop a process for preparing the above-mentioned oligomer composition. The object of the invention can be achieved by mixing hydrofluoric acid or hydrohalogenated acid other than hydrofluoric acid and hydrofluoric acid with a chitin-based material and/or a chitosan-based material.

In an image-forming apparatus, a temperature sensor is situated in the position where the sensor is insusceptible to steam. The position is, for example, a portion, of a discharge-sensor lever, where a printing material abuts on the discharge-sensor lever. Accordingly, the temperature sensor becomes insusceptible to steam, whereby the image-forming apparatus can more appropriately control the fixing temperature than conventional image-forming apparatuses. In other words, the image-forming apparatus can more reduce the incidence rate of defects, such as increase, due to excess heating, in the amount of hot-offsets and curls, deterioration of loading capacity, and defective fixing due to scarcity of the amount of heat, than the conventional image-forming apparatuses. Moreover, by determining a threshold temperature every time when a printing material passes through a heat-fixing unit, a problem can be alleviated, in which, at the beginning of a series of paper passage, the amount of fluctuation in detected temperature becomes significantly large.

An image heating apparatus for heating an image formed on a recording material, the apparatus including a conveying roller for conveying a recording material, the conveying roller including a metal core and an elastic layer provided outside the metal core, wherein the metal core has, in a central portion in the longitudinal direction thereof, a straight shape area having a substantially uniform diameter along the longitudinal direction and tapered shape areas, on both sides of the straight shape area, in which a diameter gradually decreases toward ends in the longitudinal direction, and wherein the elastic layer has, in a central portion in the longitudinal direction thereof, a straight shape area having a substantially uniform diameter along the longitudinal direction and inverted crown shape areas, on both sides of the straight shape area, in which a diameter gradually increases toward ends in the longitudinal direction. This configuration allows to prevent defects in image heating while suppressing creases in the recording material.

The present invention provides a method for purifying a niobium compound and/or tantalum compound in a simplified manner at a low cost. This is accomplished by providing a method for purifying a niobium compound and/or tantalum compound whereby a niobium compound and/or tantalum compound dissolved in a solvent is allowed to precipitate to be isolated.
摘要:
An image heating apparatus which heats an image on a recording material by holding and conveying the image-borne recording material at a nip between heating and pressure members has a sequence to set a heating temperature of the apparatus to be lower than an ordinary set temperature when, after the recording material of a width narrower than a predetermined width was passed, the recording material of a width wider than that width is passed. The set heating temperature when the wide-width recording material is passed after the narrow-width recording material was passed is controlled according to the number of the passed narrow-width recording materials and an elapsed time from the passing of the narrow-width recording material to the passing of the wide-width recording material, whereby hot off-set occurring when the large size recording material is passed after the small size recording material was passed is prevented without deteriorating fixability.
摘要:
An image heating apparatus for an image forming apparatus comprises a heater and a rotary member having plasticity and rotated in contact with the heater. The rotary member in the image heating apparatus has an external shape becoming larger toward the end portions in the longitudinal direction, thereby preventing generation of wrinkles or unevenness in the conveyed recording medium.
