IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18595651 titled 'IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation: This patent application describes a method for controlling the removal of an electric charge from a surface of an image-bearing member in a system where the image-bearing member and a developing member rotate while in contact with each other.

  • The control portion adjusts the transfer voltage applying portion to apply a first transfer voltage when the recording medium is between the image-bearing member and the transfer member.
  • After the recording medium passes through this section, a second transfer voltage lower than the first one is applied to continue the charge removal process.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Post-rotation control of electric charge removal from an image-bearing member.
  • Different transfer voltages applied based on the position of the recording medium.
  • Efficient and precise control of charge removal process during rotation.

Potential Applications:

  • Printing and copying machines.
  • Image processing equipment.
  • Document scanning devices.

Problems Solved:

  • Ensures effective removal of electric charge from the image-bearing member.
  • Prevents image distortion or quality issues during the printing process.

Benefits:

  • Improved image quality and clarity.
  • Enhanced performance and reliability of printing equipment.
  • Consistent results in image reproduction.

Commercial Applications:

  • "Advanced Control System for Electric Charge Removal in Printing Equipment"
  • This technology can be utilized in various industries such as publishing, advertising, and graphic design.
  • Market implications include increased efficiency in printing processes and higher quality output.

Questions about the Technology 1. How does this method compare to traditional charge removal techniques? 2. What are the potential cost savings associated with implementing this technology?

Frequently Updated Research:

  • Stay updated on advancements in image processing technology and printing equipment for potential improvements in charge removal processes.


Original Abstract Submitted

In post-rotation control of removing an electric charge from a surface of an image bearing member in a state that the image bearing member and a developing member rotate while in contact with each other, in a case that the post-rotation control is started in a state that a recording medium is being conveyed by the image bearing member and a transfer member, i) a control portion controls a transfer voltage applying portion so as to apply a first transfer voltage in a case that the recording medium is being sandwiched between the image bearing member and the transfer member, and ii) the control portion controls the transfer voltage applying portion so as to apply a second transfer voltage that is lower than the first transfer voltage after the recording medium passes through a sandwiching portion.
