摘要:
A three roll fuser incuding a fuser roll, pressure roll and a backup roll. The backup roll is crowned and is supported in pressure engagement with the fuser roll to form a first nip while the fuser roll is also supported in contact with the pressure roll. The pressure engagement of the crowned roll with the fuser roll eliminates nonuniform nip loading in wide fusers as well as providing uniform velocity through the fuser roll/pressure roll nip.
摘要:
A heat and pressure fusing apparatus for fixing toner images to substrates such as plain paper, the toner comprising a thermoplastic resin. The apparatus includes two nip forming members which cooperate to form a nip having an asymmetrical pressure profile. Thus, the pressure profile through the nip, from entrance to exit, is such that toner images on a substrate passing through the nip are first subjected to relatively low pressure which continues until the toner begins to flow. Once toner flow commences, the images are subjected to pressure high enough to force the toner into the substrate. The nip is readily variable for accommodating different fusing speeds for different processors.

A conformable roller for use in a fusing station of an electrostatographic machine, said fusing station being provided with a pressure roller for fusing a toner image on a receiver, said fuser roller made from a plurality of layers surrounding an axis of rotation, said conformable roller comprising a rigid cylindrically symmetric core member; a compliant base-cushion layer formed on the core member; a stiffening layer in intimate contact with and surrounding the base-cushion layer; a compliant release layer coated on the stiffening layer; and said fusing station including an external heat source for said fuser roller, at least one of said plurality of layers being thermally resistive.
摘要:
A product and process for forming an internally heated roller configuration for use in an electrostatographic machine that employs a fuser roller and a pressure roller. One of the rollers is a conformable roller having a rigid cylindrical core member centered on an axis of rotation, a compliant base cushion layer formed on the core member; a stiffening layer in intimate contact with and surrounding the base cushion layer; and an internal heating mechanism, while the other roller is a hard roller.

An X-ray phosphor composition consisting essentially of a material having the formula(Y.sub.1.sub.-x In.sub.x PO.sub.4)wherein X has a value of from about 0.005 to about 0.2, emits in the area of the spectrum of from about 300 to about 460 nanometers when excited by X-rays. A method of preparing the phosphor composition and an X-ray intensifying screen containing the same are described.

摘要:
Europium and ytterbium when added to terbium-activated rare earth phosphors having either a lanthanum oxysulfide, gadolinium oxysulfide, or yttrium oxysulfide host increase the decay period of the phosphors in a controlled manner.
摘要:
A release agent donor member for a toner fixing system, the donor member includes: a base member; an optional intermediate layer; and an outermost layer of a polymeric composition containing a cured interpenetrating network or (a) fluorocarbon elastomer and (b) at least one silicone elastomer of polyfunctional poly(C.sub.(1-6) alkyl) siloxane polymer; polyfunctional poly(C.sub.(1-6) alkyl)arylsiloxane polymer; and combinations thereof; wherein a functionalist release agent is applied to the outer surface of the outermost layer; and wherein the outermost layer contains a metal oxide in an amount sufficient to interact with the functionalist release agent. The fluorocarbon elastomer can be a terpolymer of vinylideneflouride, hexafluoropropylene, and tetraflouroethylene, wherein the vinylideneflouride is present in an amount greater than 45 mole percent.
摘要:
A release agent management (RAM) system including a metering roll supported for contact with release agent material contained in a sump. Release agent material in the form of relatively low viscosity silicone oil is pumped into the sump via an inlet hose attached at one end of the sump. An outlet hose is attached to the sump at its other end. By attaching the inlet and outlet hoses at the ends of the sump, maximum clearance for the paper and a cost effective RAM is provided. Oil height variation due to sump tipping, end-to-end, is minimized by structure internal to the sump which simulates a central inlet/outlet.
摘要:
Phosphors having the general formula (A.sub.1.sub.-x RE.sub.x).sub.2 Hf.sub.2 O.sub.7 are disclosed wherein A is selected from the group consisting of yttrium, gadolium, lanthanum, scandium and lutetium; RE is selected from the group consisting of praseodymium, samarium, europium, terbium, dysprosium, holmium, erbium and thulium; and x is from about 0.001 to 0.10. The phosphors are prepared by dissolving an oxide of A and an oxide of RE in a mineral acid and dissolving HfOCl.sub.2 in water and combining the two solutions. A precipitating agent such as oxalic acid is added and the precipitate is washed, dried and fired to produce the phosphors.
