摘要:
An image forming apparatus is provided, which includes an image bearing member, a transfer roller having a shaft for transferring an image on the image bearing member to a transfer sheet, a bearing mechanism for supporting the shaft, a discharging device for discharging the transfer, and a joint mechanism which mechanically connects the discharging device with the transfer roller at both ends of the shaft. Both of the transfer roller and the discharging device can be integrally detached from and attached to the image forming apparatus without detaching/attaching the bearing mechanism, by use of a handle. Therefore, an operation for replacing the transfer roller and the discharging device can be performed easily.

A plasma beam is directed towards a hearth to flow electric current of the plasma through the hearth during formation of a thin film on a substrate. The plasma beam is directed towards an auxiliary anode to flow electric current of the plasma through the auxiliary anode during the period after completion of the formation of the thin film on the substrate and before beginning of the formation of a thin film on the subsequent substrate.
摘要:
A magnet motor stator where a magnet of a pole of a stator includes multiple magnets. Each magnet can be flat and made from rare-earth materials. It is thus possible to manufacture these magnet motor stators at a lower cost accompanied by a reduction in size and weight for the magnet motor.

In an image forming apparatus, a latent image electrostatically formed on a photoconductive element is developed by a two-ingredient type developer consisting of toner and carrier. The photoconductive element has a life coincident with the life of the developer. When the photoconductive element and developer reach the end of their life, they are replaced at the same time.
摘要:
Accumulated toner and other particulate contaminants are removed from rollers, such as charging and transferring rollers, and conveyed to a collection receptacle positioned about the rotating path of an image bearing member, such as a photoconductive drum. In one embodiment, accumulated toner removed from a charging roller is recycled for development.

A paper sheet counting machine is disclosed, wherein sheet catching rollers are rotated to feed out paper sheets one after another by means of a friction. A sheet separating roller and a sheet separating plate cooperate to transport the fed out paper sheets, the former having a friction coefficient in connection with the paper sheets which is larger than a friction coefficient existing between the paper sheets themselves and the latter having a same nature of friction coefficient with the sheet separating roller so that the roller is rotated to transmit a transportation power to each of the paper sheets while the plate gives a braking power to each of the paper sheets thereby to prevent more than two paper sheets are transported in an overlapped condition. A counter is operated to count the paper sheets as these are transported past the counter while an angle sensor is operated to detect the rotation angles of the roller to check the width of the paper sheets thereby to discriminate if more than two paper sheets are transported in an overlapped condition, and if so, a warning signal is produced.
摘要:
A panel shutter device constructed in such a way that in the process of continuously moving each panel by a lifting shift along guides rails and a lateral shift along a housing rail, a guide rotary member engages or disengages a guide shaft projecting from the side of the panel opposite the driven side. At the time of descending of the shutter curtain, in order to prevent finger pinching as each panel is placed on the succeeding panels sequentially, each panel can be lifted or descended without causing a gap between panels of the shutter curtain by providing the support member suspended by a pivotable connecting chain.
摘要:
A toner supply device incorporated in electrophotographic equipment which develops a latent image electrostatically formed on an image carrier by using toner. The device has a toner tank for supplying toner to a developing section which forms a part of the equipment, a toner sensor responsive to the amount of toner remaining in the toner tank, and a toner server adjoining the toner tank for feeding toner to the tank. The toner server has a plurality of toner cartridges thereinside and automatically replaces the toner cartridge a plurality of times.
摘要:
An apparatus for measuring the luminous lifetime samples, which eliminates the deviation of the time axis of each channel of a multichannel TAC, deviations resulting from differences the wiring or the time lag of the elements of each channel of the multichannel TAC constituting a principal part of the apparatus. The apparatus operates by adding a respective variable offset voltage to the output of each channel of the TAC and by regulating the offset voltage in every channel without using any delay element so as to eliminate the time axis deviations of the channels.
摘要:
A fluorescent gas analyzer for analyzing gases by the fluorescence method. A flashtube which is operated in its pulse mode is used as a light source. First and second optical detectors respectively detect light of a first and second wavelength range, the light of the first wavelength range being emitted by the light source and the light of the second wavelength range being emitted from a gas sample irradiated by the light source. A pair of integrators respectively integrate the outputs of the first and second detectors. Processing means, including sample and hold circuits and a synchronous detector, are used to further process the signals so that the system output is independent of deterioration of the light source and fluctuations in the strength of the light source output and independent of stray capacitance effects.
