A development unit with improved transport assembly
Technical field of invention
The technical field of the invention relates to developing units for developing an electrostatic latent image. Particular embodiments relate to a developing unit for developing an electrostatic latent image with dry two-component developing material.
Background
In electrophotographic printing apparatus, an electrostatically charged image is formed on a dielectric recording part which can be a photoconductive dielectric recording part which, after being uniformly charged, is image-wise exposed to conductive-increasing radiation, thereby producing a direct or reversing toner development charge pattern on the recording part.
Two-component and one-component developing materials are generally known. A typical two-component developing material contains magnetic carrier particles which have toner particles which are adhered to the carrier particles. A one-component developing material typically comprises toner particles that have an electrostatic charge so that they are attracted to and attached to a latent image on the photoconductive surface. The present invention is particularly useful for two-component systems and hybrid systems that use two-component development materials.
When a two-component developing material is used, toner particles are mixed with larger magnetizable carrier particles. The toner particles adhere to the magnetizable carrier particles by electrostatic attraction. The electrostatic charge of the toner and carrier particles is triboelectrically obtained by movement.
A developing unit applies the toner carrier mixture to the surface that carries the electrostatic charged image, the toner and magnetizable carrier particles being mixed and a layer of the toner carrier mixture, also referred to as developing material, is taken up by the developing part such as a rotating sleeve or drum which has magnets inside, thereby forming a so-called magnetic brush on a magnetic roller. During the rotation of the magnetic roller, the toner particles still attached to the magnetically attracting carrier particles are introduced into a developing zone where the toner particles are separated from the carrier particles by the electrostatic attraction forces of the electrostatic latent image to be developed and transferred to the latent electrostatic
BE2017 / 5041 loaded image. A suitable bias development bias voltage applied between the magnetic brush and the recording part being developed can determine whether the development is a "direct" or "reversal" development.
The magnetic brush must be supplied with a fresh toner carrier mixture. This is normally done by an agitator, for example, a paddle wheel, which propels or scoops the toner carrier mixture from the housing containing the developing material to the magnetic brush. The partially depleted developing material is recycled to the bulk of the developing material that is held in the housing and needs to be properly mixed on time with freshly added toner particles for the purpose of keeping the toner carrier weight ratio within acceptable limits to achieve consistent development results.

Embodiments of the invention have the purpose of mixing, transporting and improving the development properties of a developing unit, and in particular improving the uniformity of the developing material within the developing unit, while at the same time keeping the developing unit compact. Particular embodiments focus on improving a developing unit using a two-component developing material, and more particularly for the purpose of achieving a more uniform toner particle concentration of the developing material.
According to a first aspect of the invention, a development unit is provided which comprises a housing which has an input and an output; at least one developing member that is rotatably mounted in the housing and adapted to transfer toner particles to a photoconductor element; and a transport assembly adapted to transport toner particles to the at least one developing part or away from the at least one developing part. The transport assembly comprises at least one feed transport part, which is rotatably mounted in the housing and adapted to transport toner particles from the entrance to the at least one developing part. The at least one feed transport part comprises a transport screw and the transport screw comprises a rod-shaped shaft, a spiral screw blade arranged around the shaft, and at least a first elongate element which is arranged at a distance from the shaft. The transport assembly further comprises a discharge transport part, which is rotatably mounted in the housing and adapted to transport toner particles from the at least one developing part to the exit. The input and the output can be connected to a mixing fill module, with fresh toner particles being added to the developing material
BE2017 / 5041 from the output of the housing. The mixture of the developing material used with the fresh toner particles can then be re-introduced into the housing via the entrance.
Embodiments are based inter alia on the inventive insight that by performing a simple adjustment of a conveyor screw of the conveyor assembly, the developing material can be moved and transported perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveyor screw during the conveying of the developing material from the entrance to the entrance to the conveyor. at least one developmental part. In other words, the transport screw with the elongated element satisfies both the movement function and the transport function. This will lead to a more uniform concentration of toner particles in the developing material in the developing unit.
According to an exemplary embodiment, the developing unit is adapted to operate with a two-component developing material which comprises carrier particles to which the toner particles adhere, and wherein the at least one developing part comprises a developing brush comprising a rotating sleeve and at least one magnetic part inside the rotating sleeve. When developing material is to be supplied to at least one developing part, the modified transport screw of the present invention will be particularly advantageous in improving the uniformity of the toner particle concentration, and as such the development quality of the developing unit.
In an exemplary embodiment, the first elongate element is arranged against an outer edge of the spiral screw blade. The first elongate element can be secured to the outer edge by a suitable means or technique, for example by welding, by bonding, by using mechanical fasteners, etc. Such a device is particularly simple to implement since the first elongate element is for example can be a straight bar that is bonded, for example welded, at a number of points on the outer edge of a commercially available conveyor screw.
In another exemplary embodiment, the first elongate element extends through the spiral screw blade. This can be achieved by drilling holes in the spiral screw blade and inserting a rod through the holes of the blade.
In an exemplary embodiment, the first elongate element is arranged parallel to the axis. In this way, a straight elongate element can be used which leads to flow of the developing material in a transverse direction transverse to the axis of the axis.
BE2017 / 5041
In an exemplary embodiment, the elongate element extends at least 50 percent of the length of the spiral screw blade. More preferably, the first elongate member extends over at least 80 percent of the total length of the helical screw blade, and most preferably extends over at least 90 percent of the total length of the helical screw blade. In this way the influence of the first elongated element can be easily achieved over a substantial part of the length of the conveyor screw.
In an exemplary embodiment, a plurality of elongated elements are disposed at a distance from the axis, and the plurality of elongated elements extend at least 50 percent of the length of the helical screw blade, more preferably at least 80 percent of the total length of the spiral screw blade, and most preferably over at least 90 percent of the total length of the spiral screw blade. In other words, in such an embodiment, the plurality of elongated elongate elements covers a substantial part of the length of the conveyor screw.
In an exemplary embodiment, a plurality of elongated elements are arranged at different distances from the axis. This can further improve the operation of the conveyor screw, in particular when there is a variation in material mass in the conveyor screw.
In an exemplary embodiment, the plurality of elongated elements is arranged in parallel with the axis.
In an exemplary embodiment, an elongate member of the plurality of elongated members is either disposed against an outer edge of the spiral blade or extends through the spiral blade.
In an exemplary embodiment, the drain transport part comprises a drain transport screw which is arranged in parallel with at least one developing part. The drainage screw is preferably arranged such that the developing material recovers over the entire length of the developing part. The outlet is preferably arranged at one end of the drain conveyor screw. The outlet can be aligned with an axial direction of the drain conveyor screw. Preferably, the drainage screw has a shaft and a helical blade with a variable pitch, the pitch increasing in the discharge direction of the drainage screw. Such an increasing pitch will lead to a more constant lateral filling flow of the conveyor screw over the length of the conveyor screw. Indeed,
BE2017 / 5041 since the drainage screw is arranged parallel to the at least one developing part and the developing material recovers over the full length of the developing part, the volume to be transported will increase in the drain transport direction of the drain transport screw.
In an exemplary embodiment, the at least one feed conveyor part comprises at least one paddle wheel, which is arranged downstream of the conveyor screw with the first elongated elongate element and upstream of the at least one developing part. This at least one blade wheel will propel or scoop up the moved developing material flow, which flow comes from the adjusted conveyor screw in the direction of the at least one developing part.
In an exemplary embodiment, the at least one supply transport part comprises a first transport screw, which is arranged in parallel with and above the transport screw with the first elongate element. The entrance is preferably arranged at one end of the first transport screw, such that the first transport screw receives toner particles which flow through the entrance. The input can be aligned with an axial direction of the first conveyor screw. Preferably, the first transport screw and the transport screw with the first elongate element rotate in the same direction. A trough with an integrated cascade plate is preferably located below the first transport screw, the first transport screw being arranged and arranged for transporting toner from the entrance, over the cascade plate to the transport screw with the first elongate element. Preferably, the vertical distance between the top of the cascade plate and the bottom of the transport space associated with the first transport screw decreases in the transport direction of the first transport screw. In an exemplary embodiment, the height of the cascade plate decreases in the conveying direction of the first conveying screw. In another embodiment, the cascade plate has a horizontal top edge, and the first conveying screw is slightly inclined in the conveying direction of the first conveying screw within the conveying space. In this way the adjusted conveyor screw is provided over its entire length with a more or less constant flow over the cascade plate, and the adjusted conveyor screw will then cause a suitable flow in the direction of the at least one developing part, optionally via one or more blade wires.
In an exemplary embodiment, the elongate element is a linear elongate element, for example a straight bar. Such a straight bar can be fixed on the spiral screw blade, preferably on an outer edge thereof.
BE2017 / 5041
In a preferred embodiment, the elongate element is a curved elongate element, preferably a spirally curved bar. Such a curved bar can be fixed to a spiral screw blade, preferably to an outer edge thereof. When the curved bar is in the form of a spiral shape, the direction of the spiral can rotate or counter-rotate in relation to the direction of the spiral of the spiral-shaped screw blade. When having a counter-rotating direction, it becomes possible to slightly reverse the flow, whereby further flow optimizations are possible. In addition, the pitch of the spirally curved bar can be constant or variable, depending on the desired flow properties. Preferably the pitch of the spiral curved bar is at least twice, and preferably at least three times, the pitch of the spiral screw blade.
