CARTRIDGE, MEMBER CONSTITUTING CARTRIDGE, AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240280937 titled 'CARTRIDGE, MEMBER CONSTITUTING CARTRIDGE, AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS

The patent application describes a cartridge with a developing roller that is rotatable about its axis. A frame supports the roller, and a lever connected to the frame can move relative to it, with part of the lever protruding beyond the frame. The developing roller's surface extends further in the direction of the rotational axis than the lever does.

  • Developing roller rotatable about its axis
  • Frame supporting the developing roller
  • Lever connected to the frame, movable relative to it
  • Part of the lever protruding beyond the frame
  • Developing roller's surface extending further in the direction of the rotational axis than the lever

Potential Applications: - Photocopiers - Printers - Fax machines

Problems Solved: - Improved efficiency in developing roller operation - Enhanced control over developing roller movement

Benefits: - Increased precision in printing processes - Reduced wear and tear on developing roller components

Commercial Applications: Title: "Innovative Cartridge Technology for Enhanced Printing Performance" This technology can be utilized in various commercial printing devices to improve overall printing quality and efficiency.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the design of the developing roller in this cartridge improve printing processes? - The design allows for more precise control and operation of the developing roller, leading to enhanced printing quality. 2. What potential impact could this technology have on the printing industry as a whole? - This technology could revolutionize printing processes by increasing efficiency and reducing maintenance costs.


Original Abstract Submitted

a cartridge includes a developing roller rotatable about a rotational axis thereof. a frame is configured to support the developing roller. a lever is connected to the frame, with the lever being movable relative to the frame, and a part of the lever protruding beyond the frame. a surface of the developing roller extends a longer distance in a direction of the rotational axis than a distance that the lever extends in the direction of the rotational axis.
