Explain, Figure 24 A is the figure of the pressurized state of the special pressing mechanism of opening the disclosed fixing device of clear 59-67568 communique of expression, shown in the Reference numeral of present embodiment use, utilize pressure rod 303 to push backer roll bearing 316 with the backer roll 302 of fixing roller 301 relative butts.Pressure rod 303 is supported swingably by the rotating shaft 310 that is supported on fixed part, with backer roll bearing 316 butts.Swing arm 304 is supported with pressure rod 303 swingably via bolster 307.In addition, on swing arm 304, an end utilization card shotpin 309 of spring 305 and near be hooked on the bolster 307 colluding of swinging end 306A side are hung T1 place, position.
The other end of spring 305 is hooked on fixed part and colludes and hang position T2 and go up and launch, and forms near the shape by avoiding interfering with bolster 307 bolster 307 that departs from extend through swing arm 304 sides under the state of spring center.
Shown in Figure 24 B, it is the swinging end at center with bolster 307 that swing arm 304 has a plurality of, promptly is so-called two strands of shapes.Be provided with the card shotpin 309 of above-mentioned spring 305 near the swinging end 306A the bolster 307 of two bursts of portions, two gangs of shape swinging end 306A that run through swing arm 304 fix an end of spring 305.In addition, that utilizes that clamping bar 311 had promotes self-swinging end 306B to the line part that swinging end 306A extends by pressure roller 313, and the swing arm fulcrum post 312 that can engage disengaging thus with the hook portion 328 that is positioned at clamping bar 311 pinching ends is arranged on the swing arm 304.
Touch by swing arm fulcrum post 312 and pressure rod 303 and to limit swing arm 304 to the rotation of the left side of position shown in Figure 24 A.Thus, prevent the situation that the plus-pressure to backer roll 302 is difficult to play a role.
Though do not illustrate, for example, clamping bar 311 is formed in the employed image processing system shown in Figure 1 100 of present embodiment on the side to be opened/closed cover 202, when side cover 202 is closed, utilize with swinging end 306B and swinging end 306A between the state of the relative swing arm fulcrum post 312 that is had by pressure roller 313 promotion swing arms 304 of line part under, the displacement of restriction swing arm 304, in addition, when side cover 202 is opened, by the hook portion 328 that is positioned at clamping bar 311 front ends is engaged with swing arm fulcrum post 312, and cooperating opening of side cover 202, pulling swing arm fulcrum post 312 makes swing arm 304 rotations.
Figure 24 A forms clamping part N in order to make backer roll 302 be crimped on fixing roller 301, push backer roll 302 and make the nip state of periphery of fixing roller 301 of its a part of periphery.Like this, in the swing process of swing arm 304, when colluding the bolster 307 of hanging position and swing arm 304 at the two ends of spring 305 and being listed on the straight line, the elongation of spring 305 is maximum M1.At this moment, when maximum tension takes place, if the dead point that is positioned on the straight line with each several part is the border, cross spring 305 when colluding of swing arm 304 sides hung position T1 to a certain direction, (Figure 25 represents with Reference numeral M2 then to be retracted to the state of also lacking than the elongation that is arranged in the dead-centre position by spring 305, its elongation is shorter than the elongation under the situation of dead point) time tractive force, produce with this position and be application point, be the moment of fulcrum with bolster 307.
Under situation about the pressurized state of backer roll 302 being removed from above-mentioned state, by opening the side cover 202 of image processing system 100, the hook portion 328 that is positioned at the front end of relieving rod 320 spurs the swing arm fulcrum post 312 of swing arms 304 sides.Thus, remove displacement restriction, and allow its clockwise rotation swing arm 304.
In Figure 24 A, by making position that colluding on the swing arm 304 hang spring 305 (for simplicity, in Figure 24 A, represent) with Reference numeral T1, collude on the side opposite with swing arm 304 sides hang spring 305 the position (for simplicity, in Figure 24 A, represent with Reference numeral T2) and the position of bolster 307 be located along the same line, be under the situation of so-called dead-centre position, spring 305 becomes maximum tension, and then if begin to rotate from this state, contraction corresponding to spring 305, weakening of tension force, by act on the recovery of shape power on the backer roll 302 from fixing roller 301, the position of the bolster 307 that swing arm 304 is had (for simplicity, represent with Reference numeral P1 among Figure 24 A) displacement counterclockwise in Figure 24 A, make pressure rod 303 to direction rotation away from the bearing 316 of backer roll 302.Thus, removed the pressed state of 302 pairs of fixing rollers 301 of backer roll.

In addition, serve as (pressing position direction) swing counterclockwise in figure of swing fulcrum by making swing arm 304 with bolster 307, the card shotpin 309 of swing arm 304 moves to the direction of leaving spring installation projection 324.As a result, spring 305 is from the drift elongation, and is via card shotpin 309 that swing arm 304 clockwise direction (locality is removed in pressurization) in figure is pressured.
At this moment, as shown in figure 13, when seeing by the axial section of fixing roller 301, connect by the contact point of pressure roller 313 and swinging end 306B and as the straight line of the central point of second fixed pin 339 of the swing fulcrum of clamping bar 311, with the bearing surface of swing arm 304 and clamping bar 311 butts be that swinging end 306B side angulation θ is less than 90 °.Thereby swing arm 304 is subjected to the oblique power D of below in figure from clamping bar 311.
So, as shown in figure 14, become till 90 ° until θ, Yi Bian clamping bar 311 be subjected to self-swinging bar 304 oblique power D of below in figure by pressure roller 313, Yi Bian the below of swinging end 306B side in figure of swing arm 304 moved.Because can installing of clamping bar 311, so, the swinging end 306B side of swing arm 304 is moved swimmingly while move the below that the swinging end 306B side of swing arm 304 is rotated in figure by pressure roller 313 with rotating freely.Thus, can weaken and close the side to apparatus main body and cover 202 o'clock resistance, can close side cover 202 swimmingly.In addition, make swing arm 304 along (pressing position direction) swing counterclockwise among the figure by being pressed into by clamping bar 311, leave thereby make card shotpin 309 further from spring projection 324 is installed, spring 305 further extends.Thus, spring 305 makes swing arm 304 further raise along the power (moment) of clockwise direction swing among the figure, has increased the power of pushing clamping bar 311 downwards.
Further be pressed into swing arm 304 and when making θ surpass 90 ° at the state from Figure 14, the center of pressing pressure roller 313 arrives than the position of contact position above more of pressing between pressure roller 313 and swinging end 306B.Like this, self-swinging bar 304 moment that acts on clamping bar 311 just switches to the moment of upward pushing from the moment of pushing downwards.As a result, the moment that 304 pairs of clamping bars 311 of swing arm are pushed upward just surpasses fastening spring 349 makes the pressured in the counterclockwise direction moment of clamping bar 311, thereby clamping bar 311 is swung clockwise.
As a result, clamping bar 311 moves by the direction of pressure roller 313 to the swing fulcrum that leaves swing arm 304 (bolster 307).Promptly, the position of clamping bar 311 as shown in figure 15 from primary importance to second place displacement, wherein, in primary importance, clamping bar 311 is positioned at same position at the front end and the relieving rod 320 of fixing roller 301 sides at the front end of fixing roller 301 sides on above-below direction, in the second place, clamping bar 311 the front end of fixing roller 301 sides be positioned at than relieving rod 320 the front end of fixing roller 301 sides more above.
Thus, clamping bar 311 is left by the swing fulcrum (bolster 307) of the pressing position of swing arm 304 from swing arm 304, can be with less power rotary oscillation bar 304.Thereby, can weaken and close the side to framework 200 and cover 202 o'clock resistance, can close side cover 202 swimmingly.At this moment, the side butt of the connecting portion 353 of clamping bar 311 and carriage 331 limits it and swings along clockwise direction.Under this state, locator protrusions 329 (not shown) of swing arm 304 and the locating slot 330 of pressure rod 303 touch and are spacing.
The state that the swinging end 306B of the swing arm 304 above clamping bar 311 is to figure moves is further closed the side and was covered 202 o'clock, shown in Figure 16,17, clamping bar 311 by pressure roller 313 from the end of the swinging end 306B of swing arm 304 to figure the below move while rotating.In addition, because swing arm 304 is pushed and rotation counterclockwise in figure by clamping bar 311, the slotted hole 308 of swing arm 304 covers the state that 202 side direction oblique uppers tilt from fixing roller 301 side ends of this slotted hole 308 certainly to the side and erects gradually.Under state shown in Figure 17, although the depended on pressure maximum of spring 305, make the moment maximum of swing arm 304 (position is removed in pressurization) swing to counterclockwise, but because the fulcrum of the swing arm 304 that makes clamping bar 311 (pressing position) swing along clockwise direction fully leaves from the swing fulcrum (bolster 307) of swing arm 304, so the resistance when the device cover is closed does not increase more.
As shown in figure 18, if the slotted hole 308 of swing arm 304 vertically erects, then the card shotpin 309 that engages with slotted hole 308 moves to the upper end from the bottom of slotted hole 308 by the depended on pressure of spring 305.
If utilize clamping bar 311 to make swing arm 304 along counterclockwise further swing among the figure, then as shown in figure 19, the distance that projection 324 is installed from slotted hole 308 upper ends to spring is than the distance weak point that projection 324 is installed to spring from the lower end of slotted hole 308.As a result, card shotpin 309 moves to the upper end of slotted hole 308.If card shotpin 309 moves to the upper end of slotted hole 308, the axle center of then blocking shotpin 309 likens to and is top among the bolster 307 more close figure of the rotation center of swing arm 304.
As a result, the depended on pressure of spring 305 switches to from the moment that swing arm 304 is swung along clockwise direction the figure (direction is removed in pressurization) and makes its moment of (pressing position direction) swing in the counterclockwise direction.So the moment that swing arm 304 is pushed clamping bar 311 upward disappears, on the contrary, clamping bar 311 utilizes the depended on pressure of fastening spring 349 to produce the moment of pushing swing arm 304 downwards.Therefore, push the moment of swing arm 304 and the moment that spring 305 is rotated counterclockwise swing arm 304 downwards by clamping bar 311, swing arm 304 is swung swimmingly along being rotated counterclockwise direction (pressing position).Thus, can weaken and close the side to framework 200 and cover 202 o'clock resistance, and can close side cover 202 swimmingly.
Then, as shown in figure 20, if close side cover 202, the locator protrusions 329 of then not shown swing arm 304 (with reference to figure 9) just touches with the locating slot 330 of pressure rod 303 and spacing.In addition, spring 305 is pressured to backer roll 302 sides with swing arm 304, and bolster 307 is pressured to backer roll 302 sides.Thus, on pressure rod 303, produce and make its right handed moment in figure, can exert pressure well backer roll bearing 316.In addition, clamping bar 311 utilizes depended on pressure below in figure of fastening spring 349 to push swing arm 304, therefore suppresses swing arm 304 along clockwise direction rotation among the figure.
Suppressed moving of swing arm 304 by clamping bar 311 like this, rotated in the counterclockwise direction because of the reacting force that is subjected to backer roll bearing 316 thereby the locator protrusions 329 of swing arm 304 can limit pressure rod 303.Thus, pressing mechanism 315 can be exerted pressure to backer roll bearing 316 with authorised pressure.In addition, cover under 202 closing state (pressing mechanism is in pressurized state) in the side, the engaging protrusion 327 of swing arm 304 is covered 202 sides and relative than the hook portion 328 more close sides of relieving rod 320.
When side cover 202 was opened, the hook portion 328 of relieving rod 320 was fastened on the engaging protrusion 327 of swing arm 304, made swing arm 304 along clockwise direction rotation among the figure.Owing to utilize releasing spring 345 to make relieving rod 320 counterclockwise pressured in figure, so when hook portion 328 and engaging protrusion 327 butts, relieving rod 320 can not crossed engaging protrusion 327, can engage with engaging protrusion 327 reliably.If utilize the hook portion 328 of relieving rod 320 that swing arm 304 during the clockwise direction rotation, is then left from the engaging protrusion 327 of swing arm 304 and the hook portion 328 of relieving rod 320 in figure.
In addition, when the hook portion 328 of the engaging protrusion 327 of swing arm 304 and relieving rod 320 is left, the lower end position of the slotted hole 308 of swing arm 304 than upper end position more by fixing roller 301 sides.So card shotpin 309 moves down from the upper end of slotted hole 308, the depended on pressure of spring 305 just makes it along right handed moment among the figure from swing arm 304 is changed to along counter clockwise direction rotating moment the figure.Thus, even the engaging protrusion 327 of swing arm 304 is left from the hook portion 328 of relieving rod 320, swing arm 304 also utilizes the depended on pressure of spring 305 along clockwise direction rotation among the figure, with clamping bar 311 butts.Afterwards, swing arm 304 one side are touched by pressure roller 313 with clamping bar 311, Yi Bian open gradually, swing to pressurization shown in Figure 8 always and remove the position.
As mentioned above, push swing arm 304 and make swing arm 304 remove the position to the process of pressing position swing, make clamping bar 311 swing and move to swing arm 304 leading sections from pressurization at clamping bar 311.Thus, push swing arm 304 and make swing arm 304 remove the position to the process of pressing position swing at clamping bar 311 from pressurization, compare with the situation that clamping bar 311 can not be swung, it is approaching to suppress the swing fulcrum of swing arm 304 and the distance of pushing fulcrum that clamping bar 311 is pushed swing arm 304.Thereby, remove the position at swing arm 304 to the process of pressing position swing from pressurization, can suppress clamping bar 311 and swing arm 304 is pressed into the necessary power of pressing position increases gradually.As a result, needn't push swing arm 304, just can make swing arm 304 swing to pressing position with clamping bar 311 brute forces, and the resistance can reduce side cover 202 and close the time.
In addition, remove the position at swing arm 304 to the process of pressing position swing from pressurization, clamping bar 311 is switched to and boosts direction (direction of leaving from bolster) from pressing direction (with the approaching direction of bolster as the swing fulcrum of swing arm) as the moment that is subjected to swing arm 304 by pressure roller 313 of clamping bar 311 and swing arm 304 docking sections.Specifically, when seeing as the axial section of the fixing roller 301 of rotary body, with swing arm 304 and bearing surfaces clamping bar 311 butts (swing part side) be the border with the abutment of clamping bar 311 and swing arm 304 point when angle theta between the line that the swing fulcrum of clamping bar 311 is connected is 90 °, clamping bar 311 switches the moment direction of the swing arm 304 that is subjected to.During less than 90 °, by the spring 305 as pressured device swing arm 304 is removed the pressured power of direction to pressurization at θ, clamping bar 311 is subjected to the moment of depressing direction (near the bolster direction) from swing arm 304.If θ surpasses 90 °, then swing arm 304 is removed the pressured power in position to pressurization by spring 305, clamping bar 311 is subjected to the moment that pressure from swing arm 304 plays direction (direction of leaving from bolster).Thus, the moment from swing arm 304 that clamping bar 311 is subjected to is removed the position at swing arm 304 from pressurization and is switched to the process of pressing position swing.Like this, by switching to the moment of clamping bar 311 having been pressed direction, utilize this pressure to play the moment of direction (direction of leaving from bolster), clamping bar 311 moves to the front end of swing arm 304.Thereby, remove the position at swing arm 304 to the process of pressing position swing from pressurization, the fulcrum (abutment of clamping bar 311 and swing arm 304) of pushing that clamping bar 311 is pushed swing arm 304 can leave from the swing fulcrum (bolster) of swing arm 304.
In addition, owing to be provided with the pressured fastening spring 349 of direction (near the direction of bolster) from swing arm 304 sides to clamping bar 311 that depress, so when pressing mechanism is in pressurized state, utilize fastening spring 349 pressured swing arms 304 via clamping bar 311, can suppress swing arm 304 and remove the position swing to pressurization.In addition, when pressurization is removed, can make swing arm 304, and remove the position when pressing position is swung from pressurization, can make by pressure roller 313 front end of butt swing arm 304 reliably at swing arm 304 to the assigned position swing.
By the abutting part that makes clamping bar 311 and swing arm 304 become rotate freely by pressure roller 313, make swing arm 304 remove the position to the process of pressing position swing from pressurization, clamping bar 311 can move in the rotation of the side of swing arm 304 on one side on one side with the abutting part of swing arm 304.As a result, the sliding resistance with swing arm 304 can be reduced, side cover 202 can be closed swimmingly.In addition, also can reduce the frictional dissipation of swing arm 304.
In addition, because relieving rod 320 can be swung, the cover 202 state lower swing bars of opening 304 are under the so irregular state of pressing position in the side, when if close side cover 202 relieving rod 320 and engaging protrusion 327 being touched, then relieving rod 320 swings can be crossed engaging protrusion 327.Thus, under cover 202 states of opening of side,, side cover 202 is normally closed even swing arm 304 is in pressing position.
Be provided with the dip plane owing to be in the front end of backer roll 302 sides at relieving rod 320, so if under the state that relieving rod 320 and engaging protrusion 327 are touched, further close side cover 202, then relieving rod 320 is upwards guided by the dip plane and is swung, and can cross engaging protrusion 327 swimmingly.Therefore, can reduce pressing mechanism is in and closes the side under the irregular state and cover 202 o'clock resistance.
In addition, remove spring 345 to the pressured relieving rod 320 of counter clockwise direction (side of swing in the opposite direction when touching engaging protrusion 327 with relieving rod 320) by utilizing, after relieving rod 320 is crossed engaging protrusion 327, the position that relieving rod 320 is positioned at open the hook portion 328 of covering 202 o'clock relieving rods 320 in the side to engage with engaging protrusion 327.
In addition, as the effect of the pressing mechanism 315 of the fixing device of the 3rd embodiment,, as shown in figure 21,, also can close the side and cover 202 even be in the so irregular state of pressing position for swing arm 304 because relieving rod 320 is supported swingably.Below utilize Figure 21 and Figure 22 to describe.Figure 21 is that expression swing arm 304 is under the pressing position state 202 closing state are covered in the side, and Figure 22 is the E-E sectional view of Figure 21.In addition, in Figure 21 and Figure 22, use identical Reference numeral to represent the parts identical, and omit the explanation of whole parts with Fig. 8.
