    摘要: An apparatus for advancing a sheet from a moving imaging member having an unfused image after transfer of the image to the sheet. After the image is transferred to the sheet, the sheet is advanced by a transport to a fuser. The transport has low impedance, high air flow to draw the sheet toward the transport for acquisition. As the sheet is moved across the transport, an increased air flow impedance causes a low vacuum pressure in the transport to provide a low drive force that minimizes quality and motion disturbances on the sheet. The low drive force exerted on the sleet is lower than a holding force of the sheet to the moving imaging member thus causing the sheet to slide on the transport.

    摘要: In the particular embodiments of the invention described in the specification, the surface of a hot melt ink image in a projection transparency having curved surface portions is reoriented to provide an ink layer of substantially uniform thickness causing rectilinear transmission of light rays passing through the transparency and provide a clear, saturated projection image. Reorienting of the curved surface portion to provide a layer of uniform thickness is accomplished by burnishing, pressing with or without heating, rolling with or without heating, or heating the ink to a temperature above its melting point for a selected time such as 0.5 to 10 seconds. Preferably, the ink is cooled rapidly after remelting to reduce crystallization and frosting and thereby reduce light transmission losses in the ink.

    摘要: In the particular embodiments of the invention described in the specification, an opaque subtractive color ink reflection print having improved color purity resulting from reduced frosting and crystallization of the ink layers is prepared by reheating the ink image to a temperature above the melting point of at least one of the inks and then quenching the image by cooling it at a rate of at least 50.degree. C. per second. In one embodiment, the ink image is produced by an ink jet head applied to a substrate supported on a platen maintained at least 20.degree. C. below the melting point of the inks to inhibit spreading of the inks into the substrate, and the image is thereafter heated to a temperature at least 20.degree. C. above the melting point of at least one of the inks for a period of 3 to 5 seconds and then quenched at a rate of 500.degree. C. per second to produce an image having less than 20% light loss resulting from scattering of light by frosting and crystallization of the ink in the layers.

    摘要: In the embodiment described in the specification, a hot melt ink image on a substrate is treated in a continuous manner by moving it along a platen having a heating zone to melt drops of hot melt ink and cause them to spread on the substrate and decrease the angle of contact of the drops with the surface of the substrate. The platen has a flat central portion and curved portions at each end with curvatures sufficient to prevent formation of cockle. At the output end of the heating zone, the substrate is moved continuously into a quenching zone where a cooling platen cools the substrate by thermal contact at a rapid rate to prevent crystallization or frosting of the hot melt ink image. After the quenching zone, the substrate is moved along a surface having a reverse curvature with respect to the curved portions of the heating platen to eliminate residual curvature of the substrate resulting from the curved portions of the heating platen.

    摘要: An apparatus in which lateral movement of a moving belt is controlled so that the belt moves in a pre-determined path. The apparatus includes at least one moving member having a plurality of spaced, flexible discs extending outwardly from the exterior surface thereof. The portion or segment of the disc contacting the region of the belt passing thereover provides support therefor. Preventing the belt from deviating laterally from the pre-determined path deflects the portion or segments of the discs providing support for the belt. The deflected portion of the disc returns to the undeflected condition when not supporting the belt. In this manner, the maximum force applied to the belt never exceeds the minimum force required to buckle the belt.

    摘要: An apparatus in which at least two sheets are stapled to one another. The apparatus includes a controller which places a pressure source in communication with a staple drive so that pressurized fluid actuates the staple drive to drive a staple through the sheets. Thereafter, the controller places the staple drive in communication with a staple clincher so that the pressurized fluid exhausting from the staple drive actuates the staple clincher to clinch the portion of the staple legs protruding through the sheets.
