EXPOSURE HEAD AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18077321 titled 'EXPOSURE HEAD AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an exposure head for an image forming apparatus. It consists of a light emitting board group, a first lens array, and a second lens array. The light emitting board group includes multiple light emitting boards with light emitting elements arranged in a specific pattern. The first lens array focuses the light emitted from the first group of light emitting boards onto the image bearing member, while the second lens array focuses the light emitted from the second group of light emitting boards onto the image bearing member.

  • The exposure head is designed for an image forming apparatus.
  • It includes a light emitting board group, a first lens array, and a second lens array.
  • The light emitting board group consists of multiple light emitting boards.
  • Each light emitting board has multiple light emitting elements arranged in a specific pattern.
  • The light emitting boards are arranged alternately in a specific direction.
  • The first lens array focuses the light emitted from the first group of light emitting boards onto the image bearing member.
  • The second lens array focuses the light emitted from the second group of light emitting boards onto the image bearing member.

Potential Applications

  • Image forming apparatuses such as printers, copiers, or scanners.
  • Any application that requires precise and controlled exposure of light onto a surface.

Problems Solved

  • Provides a more efficient and precise exposure of light onto the image bearing member.
  • Allows for better image quality and accuracy in image forming processes.

Benefits

  • Improved image quality and accuracy.
  • Increased efficiency in image forming processes.
  • Enhanced control and precision in light exposure.


Original Abstract Submitted

An exposure head includes a light emitting board group, a first lens array, and a second lens array. The light emitting board group disposes a plurality of light emitting boards each including a plurality of light emitting elements disposed side by side in a second direction intersecting with the first direction. The plurality of light emitting boards are disposed along the second direction and alternately in the first direction. The light emitting board group includes a first light emitting board group and a second light emitting board group. The first lens array condenses light emitted from the plurality of light emitting elements disposed on the first light emitting board group onto the surface of the image bearing member. The second lens array condenses light emitted from the plurality of light emitting elements disposed on the second light emitting board group onto the surface of the image b earing member.
