摘要:
A reversible thermosensitive recording material is composed of a support and a reversible thermosensitive recording layer formed thereon. The reversible thermosensitive recording layer is composed of a matrix resin, such as polyvinyl chloride or vinyl chloride copolymer, and an organic low-molecular-weight material dispersed in the form of finely-divided particles in the matrix resin, with the weight percentage Y of the vinyl chloride repeat in the matrix resin and the average polymerization degree X of the matrix resin satisfying the relationship:-0.68 log X+3.794.ltoreq.log Y.ltoreq.-0.215 log X+2.66.

摘要:
A temperature controlling method and apparatus for a thermal printhead, in which a temperature of a thermosensitive recording material is detected by measuring a temperature change of the thermal printhead when a surface of the thermosensitive recording material contacts a surface of the resistant heater of the thermal printhead. The thermosensitive recording material is heated by the thermal printhead to a temperature suitable for recording or erasing an image on the thermosensitive recording material, with the temperature suitable for recording or erasing the image being changed as a function of the detected temperature of the thermosensitive recording material.
摘要:
A recording and erasure of a visible image on a reversible heat-sensitive recording medium can be repeatedly performed in a stable condition without failure. The visible image is recorded by a thermal recording head on the reversible heat-sensitive recording medium. The recording medium is provided with an unheated area which is not exposed to heat. The visible image is erased by providing heat by a thermal erasing head. The reversible heat-sensitive recording medium is provided with an unheated area which is unheated by the thermal erasing head. The unheated area substantially extends along at least one of sides of the reversible heat-sensitive recording medium. The unheated area prevents the reversible heat-sensitive recording medium from being warped when a erasing operation is repeated many times.
摘要:
A recording and erasure of a visible image on a reversible heat-sensitive recording medium can be repeatedly performed in a stable condition without failure. The visible image is recorded by a thermal recording head on a display area of the recording medium. The recording medium has a non-display area other than the display area. The visible image is erased by providing heat from a thermal erasing head. The thermal erasing head contacts the non-display area before the thermal erasing head contacts the display area so that dirt adhering on the thermal erasing head is removed by friction between the thermal erasing head and the non-contact area of the recording medium.
摘要:
A reversible thermosensitive recording material is composed of a support and a reversible thermosensitive recording layer formed thereon, which is capable of recording and erasing images repeatedly by utilizing its property that the transparency can be changed reversibly from a transparent state to an opaque state, and vice versa, depending upon the temperature thereof. The reversible thermosensitive recording layer is composed of a reversible thermosensitive layer and a protective layer formed thereon and has a scratching intensity of 10 g or more and a coefficient of friction of 0.10 or less. Images are reversibly formed and erased on this reversible thermosensitive recording material.
摘要:
A method of producing a reversible thermosensitive recording material composed of a support, and a reversible thermosensitive recording layer formed thereon, which contains a matrix resin and an organic low-molecular weight material dispersed in the matrix resin, and capable of reversibly assuming a transparent state and a white opaque state depending upon the temperature thereof, is composed of the steps of applying a solution or dispersion of the matrix resin and the organic low-molecular-weight material dissolved or dispersed in a solvent to the support, and drying the applied solution or dispersion with the application of heat thereto in such a manner that when the temperature of the solution or dispersion applied side of the support it t.sub.1, and the temperature of the back side surface of the support, opposite to the solution or dispersion applied side thereof, is t.sub.2, t.sub.1 is lower than t.sub.2 (t.sub.1
摘要:
A reversible thermosensitive recording material is composed of a support and a reversible thermosensitive recording layer formed on the support. The reversible thermosensitive recording layer includes a matrix resin and an organic low-molecular-weight material dispersed in the matrix resin, and has a temperature-dependent transparency. The matrix resin includes a resin component having a glass transition temperature of 90.degree. C. or more.

An image forming apparatus includes a fixing device. The fixing device includes a rotatable endless fixing member, a nip forming member arranged inside the fixing member, a pressing member in contact with the nip forming member via the fixing member, and a heating source configured to heat the fixing member. When an abnormality occurs in at least one of the fixing device and other devices included in the image forming apparatus, a rotation of the fixing member is stopped prior to stopping a rotation driving of a discharging unit and, after stopping, the fixing member is controlled to rotate.

A fixing device includes a fixing rotary body rotatable in a given direction of rotation and a heater disposed opposite the fixing rotary body to heat the fixing rotary body. A pressing rotary body contacts the fixing rotary body to form a fixing nip therebetween through which a recording medium is conveyed. A separator is disposed downstream from the fixing nip in a recording medium conveyance direction to separate the recording medium from one of the fixing rotary body and the pressing rotary body. The separator includes a separation plate including an upstream portion disposed opposite the fixing nip and at least one slot disposed downstream from the upstream portion in the recording medium conveyance direction.

A fixing device includes an endless belt rotatable in a predetermined direction of rotation and a nip formation pad disposed opposite an inner circumferential surface of the endless belt. A slide sheet is sandwiched between the nip formation pad and the endless belt and is a twill fabric containing a lubricant. The slide sheet includes a first sheet contacting the nip formation pad and including a first gutter defined by a first twill line in a first direction angled relative to the direction of rotation of the endless belt and a second sheet layered on the first sheet and contacting the endless belt. The second sheet includes a second gutter defined by a second twill line in a second direction angled relative to the direction of rotation of the endless belt.
