FIXING DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18648240 titled 'FIXING DEVICE
Simplified Explanation: The fixing device described in the patent application has surfaces that are inclined in specific directions to ensure proper fixing of a film in the device.
- The first surface of a restriction member is inclined towards the edge surface of the film as it moves away from the nip portion and downstream in the conveying direction.
- The second surface is inclined towards the roller and the center in the rotational axis direction of the film as it moves closer to them and downstream in the conveying direction.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Inclined surfaces of the restriction member for effective film fixing.
- Specific inclinations of surfaces based on the position in the conveying direction and rotational axis direction of the film.
Potential Applications: This technology can be used in various film fixing devices in industries such as printing, packaging, and manufacturing.
Problems Solved: The technology addresses issues related to film misalignment and improper fixing in fixing devices.
Benefits:
- Improved film fixing accuracy.
- Enhanced performance of fixing devices.
- Reduced film wastage.
Commercial Applications: The technology can be applied in the design and manufacturing of film fixing devices for commercial use in industries requiring precise film alignment.
Prior Art: Readers can explore prior patents related to film fixing devices and surface inclinations in fixing mechanisms to understand the evolution of this technology.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on research related to film fixing technologies, surface inclinations, and advancements in fixing devices for improved efficiency.
Questions about Film Fixing Technology: 1. How does the inclination of surfaces in the fixing device impact film alignment and fixing? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this technology in different types of fixing devices?
Original Abstract Submitted
In a fixing device according to the disclosure, a first surface of a restriction member is inclined so that, as the first surface goes further away from a nip portion, the first surface inclines toward a direction coming closer to an edge surface of the film, and the first surface is inclined so that, as the first surface comes downstream in the conveying direction, the first surface inclines toward a direction going further away from the edge surface of the film. A second surface is inclined so that, as the second surface comes closer to a center in the rotational axis direction of the film, the second surface inclines toward a direction coming closer to a roller, and inclines in a direction going downstream in the conveying direction.
