摘要:
A heat sink, wherein a plurality of heat radiation fins are mounted on a base plate to which an electron device is attached in a heat transmittable manner. The heat radiation fins are erected vertically and in parallel with each other on the reverse face of the base plate to which the electron device is contacted, and extended laterally from the base plate. The heat sink of the invention comprises a heat pipe for transporting heat between the extended portion of the heat radiation fins and the base plate.

This invention is intended to control the amount of power to be supplied to a fusing heater below a maximum applicable current value. The engine controller supplies electricity to both of two heating bodies at the same fixed duty D1. At a phase angle α1 corresponding to the fixed duty D1, pulse signals ON1 and ON2 are issued in response to a ZEROX signal as a trigger. A current value I1 is detected based on a HCRRT signal from the current detection circuit. The engine controller calculates an upper limit of applicable power duty Dlimit based on the detected current value I1, the fixed duty D1 and the preset applicable current value Ilimit. Then, a PI temperature control is performed at a duty below the upper limit duty Dlimit.

A vapor chamber, in which a condensable fluid, which evaporates and condenses depending on a state of input and radiation of a heat, is encapsulated in a hollow and flat sealed receptacle as a liquid phase working fluid; and in which the wick for creating the capillary pressure by moistening by the working fluid is arranged in said sealed receptacle, comprising: a wick for creating a great capillary pressure by being moistened by said working fluid, which is arranged on the evaporating part side where the heat is input from outside; and a wick having a small flow resistance against the moistening working fluid, which is arranged on the condensing part side where the heat is radiated to outside.

In an image forming apparatus having a toner container, the remaining amount of toner is detected by measuring a capacitance caused by a toner detector member in the toner container. It is determined whether the measured capacitance falls within a predetermined range. If it is determined that the measured capacitance falls not within the predetermined range, the measured capacitance is not used in the detection of the remaining amount of toner. The present invention thus provides an image forming apparatus reliable in the detection of toner, and a method of controlling the apparatus.

A heat sink comprises a base portion, and a multiplicity of thin plate fins erected on the base portion in parallel with each other. The fins are folded in two at their lower ends to form two-ply portions and are fixed by having the two-ply portions inserted into grooves formed in the base portion.

A heat pipe for transferring heat as the latent heat of evaporation to a radiating portion at a lower temperature by heating a heating portion of a container to evaporate a working fluid and by conveying the produced vapor to the radiating portion thereby to condense the vapor. The container is formed into a flattened hollow shape by: a flat heating portion; a radiating portion opposed at a distance to the heating portion and having a larger area than that of the heating portion; and side wall portions jointing the heating portion and the radiating portion to each other along the entire peripheral edge portions of the same.

A wick layer is attached and fixed to one surface of a metal tape without forming a gap with the metal surface, and thereafter, the tape is rolled so that the surface having the wick layer serves as an inner surface, thus forming a pipe shape, then the pipe wall is corrugated. According to the above process, the wick layer is completely and uniformly attached to the inner surface of the heat pipe.
