摘要:
An image bearing member, process device acting on the image bearing member, a first frame, a second frame lockable and separable with respect to the first frame, a locking body and a locking member lockable to the locking body, provided to separably interlock the first and second frames, and a recessed portion and a projection fittable into the recessed portion which are provided to separably interlock the first and second frames. With above construction it is possible to provide a process cartridge, an image forming system, and a method for assembling a cleaning device, which can be easily assembled and can sufficiently cope a large when the number of re-cycles.
摘要:
A process cartridge includes a first frame in which a toner containing unit for containing toner used for a developing operation and a charger unit are mounted, and a second frame which can be engaged by and disengaged from the first frame, and in which an image bearing member, a developing unit and cleaning unit are mounted. With this arrangement, the assembling ability and disassembling ability are improved remarkably, and the process cartridge is suitable for the re-cycling to contribute to the protection of the earth-environment.

A reciprocating driving device is provided with a reciprocating moving member supported to be movable in a predetermined direction and the reverse direction. A first rack is provided on the reciprocating moving member, and a second rack is provided on the reciprocating moving member and arranged so as to face the first rack. A gear moves the reciprocating moving member in the predetermined direction or the reverse direction by rotating in a predetermined direction, selectively meshing with the first rack or the second rack.

An inflator supplies gas into an airbag mounted on a motor vehicle and deploys the airbag. The inflator includes a first chamber wherein a gas blowing-outlet is provided and a gas-generating agent generating the gas by being ignited by an initiator is encapsulated. A filter is interposed between the gas blowing-outlet of the first chamber and the gas-generating agent. A second chamber is attached to the first chamber with a flow amount control member interposed therebetween, wherein compressed gas is encapsulated. A blocking member blocks a control hole of the flow amount control member so that the control hole is opened by being ruptured or removed by expanding pressure of the gas-generating agent.
摘要:
An inflator is a hybrid inflator constructed by coupling a tank charged with a pressurized gas and a gas generator containing a gas-generating chemical. A coupling mechanism is provided in each of the tank and the gas generator, and the tank and the gas generator are coupled to each other with the coupling mechanisms.
