摘要:
A developing device includes: a developer carrier that carries toner thereon; a toner supply member that supplies toner to the developer carrier; a development chamber having the developer carrier and the toner supply member; a replaceable toner cartridge that supplies toner to the development chamber and collects toner from the development chamber; and a contact member that is in contact with the toner supply member to form a nip portion. At the time of replacement to the toner cartridge that contains new toner therein, the new toner is supplied from the toner cartridge into the development chamber and is made to pass through a nip portion between the toner supply member and the contact member within the development chamber, and then nip-passed toner is collected from the development chamber into the toner cartridge.
摘要:
A developing device includes a housing that forms a development chamber therein and a developer containing portion that forms a developer containing chamber therein and contains a one-component developer. A first transport path supplies a developer from the developer containing chamber to an upper side of the development chamber. A second transport path collects a developer from a lower side of the development chamber to the developer containing chamber. A developer carrier is disposed in the development chamber and carries a developer thereon. A developer supply member is disposed in the development chamber and supplies a developer to the developer carrier. A regulating member is in contact with the developer carrier and regulates a developer on a surface of the developer carrier. Stirring of the developer in the development chamber is performed by driving the first transport path and the second transport path to transport the developer.

A developing cartridge includes: a developer carrier which carries toner; a toner supply member which supplies the toner to the developer carrier; a regulation member which regulates an amount of toner on the developer carrier; a developing chamber which has the developer carrier and the toner supply member; a transport section which is connected to an upper portion and a lower portion of the developing chamber and transports the toner from the lower portion of the developing chamber to the upper portion of the developing chamber; and a transport member which is disposed inside the transport section and transports the toner while agitating the toner. A capacity of the transport section is larger than a capacity of the developing chamber.

A developing device includes: a replaceable toner cartridge; a development chamber; a first transport path which connects the toner cartridge to the development chamber; a first transport unit which transports toner from the toner cartridge to the development chamber through the first transport path; a second transport path which connects the development chamber to the toner cartridge; and a second transport unit which discharges the toner within the development chamber to the toner cartridge through the second transport path at the time of replacement of the toner cartridge.
摘要:
A development cartridge includes a developer carrier which carries toner, a toner supply member supplying the toner to the developer carrier and a regulation member regulating an amount of toner on the developer carrier. A development chamber encloses the developer carrier and the toner supply member. A transport section is connected to upper and lower portions of the development chamber to transport the toner from the lower portion of the development chamber to the upper portion of the development chamber. A transport member is disposed inside the transport section and transports the toner while agitating the toner. An amount of toner passing per unit time from the development chamber to the transport section is larger than an amount of toner passing per unit time from the transport section to the development chamber. A toner transport speed of the transport member is controlled in accordance with a process speed.

A developing device includes: a developing roller on the surface of which intersecting inclined grooves are formed by rolling working; and a seal member which comes into contact with the developing roller, wherein ridge portions of a convex portion surrounded by the inclined grooves of the surface of the developing roller are formed such that rotational resistance due to the contact of the seal member on the downstream side of a rotation direction opposite to a rotation direction of the developing roller at the time of development is larger than rotational resistance due to the contact of the seal member on the downstream side of a rotation direction of the developing roller at the time of development, and at the time of refreshing of the seal member, the developing roller is rotated in the opposite direction to a direction at the time of development.

The invention provides a liquid ejecting apparatus which can prevent a target having liquid ejected thereon from warping irrespective of the type of the target. An ink jet printer includes a recording head configured to eject ink from a nozzle formed on a nozzle-formed surface onto a recording sheet being transported from an upstream side to a downstream side, and a plurality of supporting belts arranged so as to oppose the nozzle-formed surface and each having a supporting portion extending along the direction of transport of the recording sheet. The respective supporting belts are arranged so as to be capable of moving along the width direction intersecting the direction of transport of the recording sheet.

A printer includes a heating roller unit that heats recording paper at a position downstream of a recording head, which is provided at an upstream position, in the direction of the transportation of the recording paper. The recording head ejects ink to the recording paper that is transported from an upstream side to a downstream side. The heating roller unit is disposed along the direction of the width of the recording paper, which intersects with the transportation direction thereof. The heating roller unit is divided into a plurality of areas in the width direction. Heat applied by first areas of the plurality of areas to the recording paper is different from heat applied by second areas, which are adjacent to the first areas in the width direction, to the recording paper.
