  • Publication number: 20240009701
    Abstract: A weight with optimum weight and high strength can be easily manufactured and the vibration actuator with excellent vibration characteristic is provided. The vibration actuator is formed by a casing 2 with cylindrical shape, a coil 21 provided in the casing 2, and a mover 4 that vibrates along an vibration-axis direction of the casing 2. The mover 4 includes a mover body and a weight fixed to the mover body. A protrusion 311 protruding toward an opening of the casing 2 is provided at a central portion of the mover body, and a recess 321 which is recessed toward the opening of the casing 2 is provided at the central portion of the weight 32. The mover body and the weight 32 is fixed in a state in which the protrusion 311 is inserted into the recess 321.

  • Publication number: 20230168608
    Abstract: A developing device includes a developing case, a filter, and a filter holder. The developing case stores developer inside to develop a latent image formed on a surface of an image bearer and has an opening portion that communicates between an inside and an outside of the developing device. The filter has a lower weight density per unit volume at a first side of the filter facing the inside of the developing device than a weight density per unit volume at a second side of the filter facing the outside of the developing device. The filter holder is detachably attached to the opening portion of the developing case with the filter held by the filter holder.

  • Publication number: 20210351680
    Abstract: An oscillatory actuator 1 includes a cylindrical case 2, an electromagnetic driver 3, a mover 4, a first damper 40a, and an inner guide 6a. The electromagnetic driver 3 is provided inside the case 2. The mover 4 is enabled to oscillate through driving by the electromagnetic driver 3. The first damper 40a has a plurality of arms 52a supporting the mover 4 from an inner surface of the case 2. The inner guide 6a is provided on the inner surface of the case 2 and restricts movement of the first damper 40a beyond a predetermined range. The inner guide 6a is located further toward a center of the case 2 than the first damper 40a in a direction of an oscillation axis ? of the mover 4.
