摘要:
In an image forming apparatus, a first photoconductor drum for use in at least in a monochrome printing mode is located upstream, in a direction of transport of a medium, of a plurality of second photoconductor drums for use in a color printing mode. A transfer bias for each of transfer members is regulated in such a manner that a transfer bias applied in the monochrome printing mode between a second photoconductor drum located adjacently downstream of the first photoconductor drum and the corresponding transfer member is larger than that applied in the color printing mode. A developing bias for each of the development rollers is regulated in such a manner that an absolute value of a developing bias voltage applied to a development roller corresponding to the first photoconductor drum in the monochrome printing mode is smaller than that applied in the color printing mode.

A image forming device includes a main casing, a photosensitive-member unit including a plurality of photosensitive members aligned in a first direction, and a belt disposed in confrontation with the photosensitive members. The photosensitive-member unit is movable in the first direction with respect to the main casing, and is pulled out of the main casing when pulled in a pull-out direction parallel to the first direction. The photosensitive-member unit is provided with a cleaning member that is disposed on an upstream side of a most-upstream one of the photosensitive members with respect to the pull-out direction. The cleaning member slidingly contacts the belt when the photosensitive-member unit is moved with respect to the main casing. The cleaning member is located at a predetermined position separate from the belt when the photosensitive-member unit is at a mounting position within the main casing.

An image forming apparatus includes a transfer bias set up section and a developing bias set up section. The transfer bias set up section sets a transfer bias applied to each transfer member so that the transfer bias applied to a transfer member corresponding to a photosensitive member on the most downstream side is greater than a transfer bias applied to a transfer member other than this transfer member. The developing bias set up section sets a developing bias applied to each developing member to a first developing bias in a single-side printing mode, and sets up the developing bias applied to each developing member in formation of an image on a first surface and in formation of another image on a second surface to a second developing bias lower than the first developing bias when the image formed on the second surface is a color image.

The present invention provides a method of designing a high fatigue strength in high tensile strength steel, comprising: obtaining values of tensile strength &sgr;B (unit thereof is MPa) and Vickers hardness Hv of the steel; measuring a flaw area of an inclusion, when a fracture origin is located only at a surface of the steel; and estimating, in designing the high fatigue strength steel, that a fatigue limit &sgr;w (unit thereof is MPa) of the steel satisfies either &sgr;w≧0.5 &sgr;B or &sgr;w≧1.6 Hv, when a square root of the flaw area, (area)½ (unit thereof is m), contained in the steel is no larger than 45.8/&sgr;B2 or 4.47/Hv2. According to the present invention, a method of evaluating high fatigue strength in high tensile strength steel, in which method a relationship between a flaw dimension (area) of ODA and the fatigue strength is considered, and a high fatigue strength material can be provided.

An image forming apparatus includes: a first photosensitive drum for a monochrome printing mode; second and third photosensitive drums for a color printing mode; a moving unit moving a medium from the first photosensitive drum via the second photosensitive drum to the third photosensitive drum; charger devices for charging the photosensitive drums; transfer devices for transferring developer images on the photosensitive drums to the medium; and a control unit configured to control charging biases of the charger devices and transfer biases of the transfer devices. The control unit executes, in the monochrome printing mode, an energy saving control in which an absolute value of a charging bias applied to the charger device for the third photosensitive drum is smaller than an absolute value of a charging bias applied to the charger device corresponding to the second photosensitive drum.
