A kind of handle box and image forming apparatus
Technical field
The utility model relates to a kind of handle box and image forming apparatus.
Background technology
Dismountable handle box (also claiming Delevoping cartridge) being installed in the image forming apparatus such as duplicating machine and laser printer, in development imaging process, brought into play vital role, conventionally, handle box can include powder box main body, powder feeding roller, developer roll, powder outlet cutter, waste powder hopper, photosensitive drums and charging roller etc.An existing class handle box has been used the visualization way of non magnetic great-jump-forward, and wherein, the hollow cylindrical sleeve that developer roll (also claiming development sleeve) is normally formed by the metals such as aluminium, copper, stainless steel or alloy, carries non magnetic carbon dust thereon; Two ends at developer roll are symmetrically arranged with sheath, with control developer roll and photosensitive drum shaft between keep certain gap; Conventionally at this sleeve outer surface, be coated with the conductive coating with certain roughness and hardness, give the certain mechanical property of development sleeve and electrical property, by developer roll and powder outlet cutter are applied to certain development bias voltage, make the non magnetic carbon dust that carries on developer roll charged and transit to photosensitive drum surface, convert electrostatic latent image to visual image.In the prior art, the mode that developer roll is applied to development bias voltage as depicted in figs. 1 and 2, in powder box main body 1, be provided with powder outlet cutter 2 and developer roll 3, bracing frame 4 is for supporting the parts such as developer roll 3 and powder feeding roller (not shown), bracing frame 4 comprises main part 41 and back shaft 42, has an end 411 in main part 41.Conducting strip 5 is arranged on described end 411, and the protuberance 51 of one side contacts and form electrical connection with the contact in laser printer (not shown); The extension 52 of opposite side contacts and forms electrical connection with the end of powder outlet cutter 2, and the development bias voltage thus laser printer being provided is passed to powder outlet cutter 2.Support frame as described above 4 integral body consist of conductive material, it contacts cooperation towards the back shaft 42 of handle box inside and the sleeve lining of developer roll 3, make back shaft 42 form and be electrically connected to developer roll 3, like this, when supporting developer roll 3 rotary works, the development bias voltage that also makes conducting strip 5 receive is passed to developer roll 3.Thus, powder outlet cutter 2 and developer roll 3 can receive the development bias voltage that laser printer is supplied with simultaneously.
Yet, due to the long-term relative rotation of developer roll 3 with back shaft 42, the wearing and tearing that can cause back shaft 42 to exist to a certain degree, make itself and developer roll 3 loose contacts, thereby cause the spread of voltage on developer roll 3, finally affect carbon dust to the transition of photosensitive drum surface electrostatic latent image, cause occurring print quality defect.
Utility model content
The utility model provides a kind of handle box, to solve existing handle box, because developer roll causes back shaft to wear and tear with the long-term relative rotation of back shaft, causes the technical matters of the spread of voltage on developer roll.
In order to solve above technical matters, the technical scheme that the utility model is taked is:

Forming apparatus forms and is electrically connected to;
It is characterized in that, also comprise the second electric-conductor, described the second electric-conductor comprises stiff end and free end, described in
Between stiff end and described the first electric-conductor, form and be electrically connected to, described free end contacts also with described developer roll
Form and be electrically connected to.
Described the second electric-conductor has elasticity.
The free end of described the second electric-conductor is connected to the sleeve lining of described developer roll and forms and be electrically connected to described developer roll.
Described the first electric-conductor is bracing frame, is positioned at the end of described powder box main body, comprises main part and back shaft, and described back shaft is used for supporting described developer roll and is electrically connected to its formation; The stiff end of described the second electric-conductor is fixed on described back shaft.
The injection mo(u)lding together with described back shaft of described the second electric-conductor.
The free end of described the second electric-conductor is overlapped in the sleeve surface of developer roll and forms and be electrically connected to described developer roll.
Described the first electric-conductor is bracing frame, is positioned at the end of described powder box main body, comprises main part and back shaft, and described back shaft is used for supporting described developer roll and is electrically connected to its formation; The stiff end of described the second electric-conductor is fixed in described main part.
Also comprise powder outlet cutter, form and be electrically connected to described the first electric-conductor; The stiff end of described the second electric-conductor is fixed on screw on the screw of powder outlet cutter, forms and is electrically connected to.
Described the second electric-conductor is sheet or thread.
The utility model also provides a kind of image forming apparatus, and described image forming apparatus comprises above-mentioned handle box.
After having adopted technique scheme, owing to having increased electric-conductor, between described powder outlet cutter and described developer roll, by described electric-conductor, form and be electrically connected to.When handle box is installed on after image forming apparatus, when the back shaft of developer roll is electrically connected to by support with powder outlet cutter, development bias voltage also can be passed to developer roll by powder outlet cutter by electric-conductor.Like this, cause developer roll is charged when bad when back shaft wearing and tearing, electric-conductor can be good at guaranteeing charged uniform and stable on developer roll.Solve existing handle box and caused the technical matters of the spread of voltage on developer roll because developer roll causes back shaft to wear and tear with the long-term relative rotation of back shaft.
