A fixing device according to the present invention includes a fixing belt and heats up a record medium having a developed image, a pressure roller pinches and conveys the record medium together with the fixing belt and fixes the developed image, a heating roller contacts the fixing belt and heats up the fixing belt at a specified temperature, and a heater that is arranged in the heating roller and displaced toward the radius direction of the contact side with the fixing belt from the rotational center of the heating roller and heats up the heating roller. Further, in the heating roller, the heater is arranged so as to be displaced toward the radius direction at the upstream side of the transfer direction of the fixing belt from the central position of the contact area of the fixing belt and the heating roller.

摘要:
A color image forming apparatus according to the invention includes an intermediate transfer member for transferring a color image onto a paper sheet, a second transfer roller capable of directly transferring, onto a paper sheet, a toner image formed on a photosensitive member to transfer a black-and-white image onto a paper sheet, a first transfer roller for transferring, onto a paper sheet, a color image on the intermediate transfer member. Since the process of transferring a black-and-white image onto a paper sheet is separated from the process of transferring a color image from the intermediate transfer member, a black-and-white image can be transferred onto a paper sheet and fixed thereon immediately after development. Thus, the period required for copying a black-and-white image, in particular, the required first copying period of a black-and-white image can be shortened.

In order to provide an image forming apparatus capable of maintaining the image quality by making smooth flowability of a surplus developer, which is discharged according to supply of a new developer (toner and carrier), toward a collection box, there are provided a stirring screw that electrify toner by stirring the toner together with a carrier; a casing that supports the stirring screw and stores a developer in which the toner and the carrier are mixed; a inlet used to supply the developer to the casing; a guide that guides the surplus developer discharged from the casing downward; and a reciprocating member that moves on a flow surface of the guide along which the surplus developer flows.
摘要:
A developer vent is provided on the wall of the developer container housing developer including toner and carrier for the developing device to overflow developer. The sectional shape of the discharge dam forming the developer vent in the vertical direction to the developer vent is such that the top part of the dam is made thinner than the wall thickness of the developer container and the slanting angle of the dam to the wall of the developer container is made larger than the repose angle of the developer.
摘要:
A method of manufacturing a developing agent, comprising the steps of forming a aggregate containing resin particles and a colorant, forming a dispersion by dispersing the aggregate, a first polymerizable monomer, and a semi-polymerizable monomer in a solvent, the semi-polymerizable monomer being obtained by partially polymerizing a second polymerizable monomer, forming a composite seed containing the aggregate, the first polymerizable monomer, and the semi-polymerizable monomer by stirring the dispersion to granulate the aggregate and polymerizing the composite seed in the presence of a soap-free polymerization initiator.
