DEVELOPER REPLENISHING CONTAINER AND METHOD OF REUSING DEVELOPER REPLENISHMENT CONTAINER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240201616 titled 'DEVELOPER REPLENISHING CONTAINER AND METHOD OF REUSING DEVELOPER REPLENISHMENT CONTAINER
The abstract describes a developer replenishing container that can be detachably attached to a developer replenishing device to replenish developer.
- Developer replenishing container with a replenishing opening and a movable shutter.
- Shutter can open and close the replenishing opening based on attaching and detaching operations.
- Shutter can move between sealing, replenishing, and filling positions.
- Filling position allows the container to be filled with developer without sealing the replenishing opening.
Potential Applications: - Used in photocopiers, printers, and other imaging devices that require developer replenishment. - Can be utilized in industrial printing processes that involve continuous developer replenishment.
Problems Solved: - Provides a convenient and efficient way to replenish developer in imaging devices. - Ensures that the developer replenishing process is sealed and secure when not in use.
Benefits: - Reduces downtime by streamlining the developer replenishing process. - Enhances the overall performance and longevity of imaging devices by ensuring proper developer replenishment.
Commercial Applications: - This technology can be marketed to manufacturers of photocopiers, printers, and industrial printing equipment. - It can also be sold to companies that provide maintenance services for imaging devices.
Questions about Developer Replenishing Container: 1. How does the movable shutter in the container contribute to the efficiency of the developer replenishing process? 2. What are the potential cost savings for businesses that implement this developer replenishing container technology?
Frequently Updated Research: - Stay updated on the latest advancements in developer replenishing container technology to ensure optimal performance and compatibility with various imaging devices.
Original Abstract Submitted
a developer replenishing container configured to be detachably attachable to a developer replenishing device and to replenish developer via the developer replenishing device is disclosed. the developer replenishing container includes: a developer replenishing portion with a replenishing opening; and a shutter with at least one shutter opening that can communicate with the replenishing opening, the shutter being configured to open and close the replenishing opening according to attaching and detaching operations of the developer replenishing container, wherein the shutter is movable between a sealing position where the replenishing opening is sealed, a replenishing position where the shutter opening faces the replenishing opening to replenish developer from the developer replenishing container, and a filling position where the developer replenishing container is filled with developer without sealing the replenishing opening.
