  • Intermediate transfer belt and methods for making the same
    Patent number: 7957684
    Abstract: An image forming apparatus having an improved intermediate transfer belt, and processes for making the same. More specifically, there is provided an intermediate transfer belt having one or more steering ribs formed into the belt such that a separate steering rib need not be employed.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 25, 2008
    Date of Patent: June 7, 2011
    Assignee: Xerox Corporation

  • Ultrasonic welding member for smoothing flexible belt seams and method for using
    Patent number: 7846280
    Abstract: An ultrasonic welding member for use in welding seamed flexible belts to produce smoother seams having reduced seam thickness. The ultrasonic welding member has a unique configuration, that includes an increased tip surface formed in such a manner that more energy from the horn is dispersed over the seam overlap region for a longer duration of time to produce a smoother and thinner weld.

  • Process for fabricating electrophotographic imaging member
    Patent number: 6214514
    Abstract: A process for fabricating electrophotographic imaging members including providing an imaging member including a substrate coated with a charge generating layer having an exposed surface, applying a first solution including a charge transporting small molecule and film forming binder to the exposed surface to form a first charge transporting layer having a thickness of greater than about 13 micrometers and less than about 20 micrometers in the dried state and an exposed surface, and applying at least a second solution having a composition substantially identical to the first solution to the exposed surface of the first charge transporting layer to form at least a second continuous charge transporting layer, the at least second charge transporting layer having a thickness in the dried state less than about 20 micrometers in the dried state, the at least second charge transporting layer, and any subsequent applied solution having a composition substantially identical to the first solution.
