Abstract: A method of preventing colors from being mixed in a two-color image forming apparatus. The surface of a photoreceptor is uniformly charged. A first latent electrostatic image formed on the photoreceptor surface is developed with a one-component developer so as to form a first toner image. A second latent electrostatic image formed on the photoreceptor surface is developed with a two-component developer so as to form a second toner image. The first and second toner images are simultaneously transferred onto a recording medium. In a preferred embodiment, the one-component developer is a magnetic toner, while the two-component developer is the combination of a nonmagnetic toner and a magnetic carrier. The magnetic toner and the magnetic carrier are preferably powder made of substantially the same materials.

Abstract: An apparatus for printing on opposite surfaces of a strip of printing paper using two electrophotographic printing units wherein each printing operation is of high quality and thermal damage to the printing is minimized. The apparatus includes a first electrophotographic printing unit for printing on the front surface of the printing paper, a buffer unit for temporarily holding the printing paper discharged outside of the first electrophotographic printing unit, a turn unit for turning over the printing paper, and a second electrophotographic printing unit for printing the reverse surface of the printing paper. A toner having a low melting temperature is employed for each of the first and second electrophotographic printing units so that developing treatment is conducted only with the aid of a heat roll but without any use of a preheating plate. A back-up roll adapted to cooperate with the heat roll is coated with a tetrafluoroethylene-based synthetic resin.

Abstract: An electrophotographic printing apparatus with a pivotable paper buffer and a pivotable guide member which together, depending on their position in relation to each other, form either a loading configuration or a printing configuration. In the loading configuration, the pivoting end of the buffer is adjacent to the pivoting end of the pivotable guide member to form a horizontal path for the paper to travel between the photosensitive member and the fixing portion. In the printing configuration, the buffer pivots upward away from the guide member so that it is in a position to receive a paper sheet as it is fed by a tractor after being contacted by the photosensitive member.

Abstract: A method of operating an electrographic printing apparatus which employs a reversal development system with a two components developer wherein the bias voltage and the surface voltage are varied in synchronism with each other.

Abstract: An electrophotographic printer in which toner is printed and fused and the paper thereafter folded and stacked. To avoid toner stick a blower blows cooling air between adjacent folded sheets. The blower may be mounted on a horizotnally slidable paper guide. The stacker table may be lowered so that the top of the stack is maintained at the same height or the blower may be moved vertically in response to the output of a sensor detecting the top of the folded stack.

Abstract: In a printing sheet conveying device in which a sheet bearing a toner image is passed through a heating roll and a pressure roll, and which has means for changing the right and left contact pressures of these rolls to correct the meandering movement of the sheet when conveyance of the sheet is started; in which when conveyance of the sheet is started, the contact pressure of the rolls is made higher on one of the right and left sides than on the other side, and in a predetermined period of time the contact pressures on both sides are made equal to each other.

Abstract: A fixing roller used in an electrophotographic device includes a coupling with a drive key that engages an end of a pressing roll that contains a key groove. Disposed between the coupling and the end of the pressing roll is a spacing member. This spacing member decreases the rate at which the key groove and the drive key deteriorate when two fixing rollers are used as pair to fix toner on a printed page. The spacing member is made of plastic, a sintered metal alloy, or other material. Also, the spacing member is lubricated to further prevent friction and the key groove of the pressing roll is lined with an abrasion resistant material to further prevent deterioration of the drive key and the key groove.

Abstract: A laser printer with a thermal fixing unit comprises: a pair of heat and pressure rolls for pressing a sheet with a developed toner image therebetween to fix the toner image on the sheet; a web immersable with an oil; an oil coater for supplying the oil to the web and pressing the web against the heat roll at at least one point to make the web contact with the heat roll so that the oil is applied from the oil coater onto the surface of the heat roll through the web to thereby prevent occurrence of offset of the toner image; and at least one pressing member provided separately from the oil coater for locally urging the web against the heat roll, the pressing member being located on at least one of before and behind the oil coater.

Abstract: An electrophotographic device has a photosensitive element, an electrifier that forms a uniform electrostatic potential on the photosensitive element, and a light source for irradiating the photosensitive element to obtain an electrostatic latent image that has a reduced potential. A bias potential is applied to the photosensitive element after the latent image is formed, but before it is developed, so that the reduced potential of the latent image can be maintained at a constant level. With constant potentials existing on the photosensitive element, a printed image of high quality is obtained.

Abstract: A protection device for the compressor of an air conditioning system. The protection device comprises a refrigerant level detector positioned in a receiver dryer to detect the level of refrigerant. A control device is coupled to the level detector and prevents the operation of the compressor if the level of refrigerant is below a predetermined amount.

Abstract: An oral composition which prevents periodontal disease such as gingivitis, periodontitis and alveolar pyorrhoea through the prevention of the colonization of Bacteroides gingivalis comprises an antibody obtained by immunizing a mammal with an antigen selected from Bacteroides gingivalis, its pilus and capsule fractions.

Abstract: A deflection yoke for use with an in-line cathode ray tube in which a plurality of electron beams are laid, for example, in a horizontal plane, which has a horizontal deflection winding formed in the saddle shape with front and rear bends for producing a pincushion type magnetic field and a vertical deflection winding wound toroidally around a magnetic core to surround the horizontal deflection winding between the front and rear bends for producing a barrel type magnetic field, wherein the vertical deflection winding is shorter than the distance between the front and rear bends of the horizontal deflection winding and is positioned adjacent the front bend and with a predetermined space from the rear bend. The use of the deflection yoke with the in-line cathode ray tube can eliminate or simplify a dynamic convergence correcting device.
