Patent number: 11573507Abstract: In an example of the disclosure, a blanket servicing system includes a rotatably mounted endless cleaning surface and a scraper. The endless cleaning surface is to have a first engagement with a blanket to obtain a layer of thermoplastic print agent from the blanket. The endless cleaning surface is to have a second engagement with the blanket to receive residue from the blanket onto the layer of thermoplastic print agent. The scraper is to scrape the endless cleaning surface to transfer the residue from the endless cleaning surface to a collection element.Type: GrantFiled: September 16, 2021Date of Patent: February 7, 2023Assignee: HEWLETT-PACKARD DEVELOPMENT COMPANY, L.P.Inventors: Amir Kedem, Michael Kokotov, Alex Feygelman, Guy Nesher, Nadav Shalem, Michael Vinokur
