IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18355664 titled 'IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an image forming apparatus that has two roller pairs, a first driving unit, a second driving unit, an image forming unit, and a control unit. The control unit can execute a first mode and a second mode. In the second mode, the control unit performs three processes to control the first driving unit, resulting in a faster rotational speed of the first roller pair compared to the second rotational speed. In the first mode, the control unit performs three processes to control the first driving unit, resulting in a deceleration of the first roller pair's rotational speed to equal to or less than the second rotational speed.
- The image forming apparatus has two roller pairs, a first driving unit, a second driving unit, an image forming unit, and a control unit.
- The control unit can execute a first mode and a second mode.
- In the second mode, the control unit performs three processes to control the first driving unit, resulting in a faster rotational speed of the first roller pair compared to the second rotational speed.
- In the first mode, the control unit performs three processes to control the first driving unit, resulting in a deceleration of the first roller pair's rotational speed to equal to or less than the second rotational speed.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Image forming devices such as printers, copiers, and scanners could benefit from improved control of roller pairs to enhance image quality and printing speed.
- Industrial manufacturing processes that involve roller pairs, such as laminating or coating, could benefit from precise control of roller speeds.
Problems solved by this technology:
- In image forming devices, maintaining consistent and accurate roller speeds is crucial for producing high-quality prints or copies. This technology solves the problem of controlling the rotational speed of roller pairs in different modes to achieve desired printing results.
- In industrial manufacturing processes, controlling the speed of roller pairs is essential for achieving uniform and precise coating or laminating. This technology solves the problem of controlling roller speeds to ensure consistent and reliable manufacturing outcomes.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved image quality and printing speed in image forming devices by optimizing the rotational speed of roller pairs.
- Enhanced efficiency and accuracy in industrial manufacturing processes by controlling the speed of roller pairs, resulting in uniform and precise coating or laminating.
